Is Keepass there? Good. Upvote.
Prefer KeepassXC but let's be honest, the best password manager is the only you actually use and keep using.
And that doesn’t get hacked!
Everything gets hacked given enough time. Just not everyone says they were hacked or realised they were.
Why? Keepass has lots of plugins and XC doesn't, right?
KeepassXC looks better IMO. Also I like that hardware keys work without plugins. Personally I still use KeePass for one feature that XC doesn't offer.
I like KeePassXC because it's written in C and is thus cross platform, while KeePass is written in C# and relies on Windows UI libraries. You can run KeePass on Linux (and I did without usability issue for years) but it will look god awful.
I won't knock plugins, everyone has weird use cases, but I don't know what people need KeePass to do that it doesn't already do out of the box. I've certainly never felt the need for any.
I would only use KeepassXC
