Bitwarden for paid, or VaultWarden for self-hosted.
I would say throw them some support and buy the cheap yearly pricing. It's a steal, and you won't have to worry about it ever.

This is the way. I've used other methods like Keypass + Nextcloud, etc. A system built for this, like BitWarden, is soooo much better. Especially at things like 2FA secrets.
Or best of both worlds, self host Bitwarden directly for $20/year
I don't get it
Me either
Wut?
Well yes, I run my own, as does everyone else questioning your response. The $20 is throwing everyone without context. We can only assume you mean hosting costs.
I was responding to a comment about bitwarden being paid while vaultwarden is self hosted. I've been self hosting bitwarden for years and pay $20 a year for the subscription to do so and support them. Is the self hosted option not paid like the comment I replied to says?
OK, there's the context. "I self-host BitWarden and pay for an individual license to get extra features and support them."
All for that: Finance FOSS! That bring said, Comment OP didn't say you couldn't self-host BitWarden, but I understand the response now. Vaultwarden is just so much easier to self-host, though.
The way it is written was like only vault warden is self host able and usually VW is mentioned more in forums when the actual official stack that gets regular updates and security reviews is available to host so I always like to point that out so more people use it instead of the knock off though it does have it's use cases.
You could use KeePassXC. Just sync it on your cloud platform whether that be Google cloud or Nextcloud.
Or Syncthing...
~~Syncthing's development has been stopped months ago.~~
edit: it didn't stop
syncthing's development is alive & well.
I'm presuming you're referring to the Android wrapper that had it's last update 2 weeks ago?
The Syncthing-Fork project is also still alive & (presumably) continuing on
mb, seems to be how you said it. And I stopped using it because my dumbass thought the development stopped.
Plus SSH agent integration which is killer 💯
I like proton pass it has a free tier and paid version
Selfhost Bitwarden. Has apps for everything, browser extensions and can be accessed via webpage as well.
Whatever you choose, consider a donation to the devs, that's what helps prevent these apps from dying
