    Best of the best.

    Stay away from those online password managers. Look into Syncthing (https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing) for synchronising your database(s) across your devices without needing to rely on cloud services. It works similarly to bittorrent tech afaik.

      In 15 years when it suddenly becomes important for you to need the password so some site you logged into once with an email address you haven't used in 10 years, KeePassXC will still work on whatever OS you are on and probably look the same as it does now and your password database will just be a file you have saved on a bunch of your devices and probably some USB drives lying around even if you long ago got lazy about maintaining your backup synchronization etc.

      None of the password as a service sites will still be around or if they are they will ransomed your passwords if you didn't pay some fee or other bullshit. The self-hosted ones you might still have a backup of but when you spin up the host there will be some out-dated dependencies or other bullshit that will make it a colossal effort just to retrieve a simple line of text.

      Keep it simple use Keepass

        If you're worried about that then you can export your bitwarden passwords on a regular basis and back that up however you want
