I had a look at this, and the only thing that intrigued be about KeePass was the ChaCha20 encryption which seems modern and nice.
I usually use
rbwwhich doesn't use a web page to interact with BitWarden. It stores a local copy of the database, so the only time it contacts the servers is when adding new info or syncing or otherwise changing stuff.I'll look more into KeePassXC and KeePassDX for mobile. Might be interesting, but the annoying part would be the syncing. You'd have to pay close attention to where you add new entries, and not add entries on separate devices if you want them synced to all devices. Or does that work somehow with KeePassXC?
Just set it up so that the resulting .kdbx database file is always instantly synced between your devices whenever you make changes. Everything is in that file and all keepass versions can open it. I use syncthing for this because it doesnt require a server, but you can use nextcloud or whatever you have available. With syncthing it always just keeps the most recently modified version.
