I realise now that I can think of one too. Which is that you don't need to host it anywhere if you use something like Syncthing.
Also available offline, all the time in your hands.
Bitwarden works offline. Obviously can't save to the server, but reading from what's already on your local machine works just fine.
Isn't it easier then just to use a (keepass) file? Also we carry phones around where we need secrets, too etc.
I set up a simple sync service with FolderSync (similar to Syncthing) on Android for my family, that preserves their mobile files on a server hosted SMB share. You can't underestimate a simple yet effective solution, sometimes so simple it flies under the radar.
