One downside is that i'll have no more passkeys. The vault syncing, i can do via SyncThing.

I know I can probably google this. But where are the passwords from Keepass stored? Or what makes it harder to hack?

I still use 1Password because the subscription is still running and I was planning to switch to Proton Pass once that is over. I know 1Password is harder to crack due to their 2nd master key password (or whatever they call it)

    Keepass just uses a (local) file, but it expects and can handle if the file is modified externally. That's important because it means you can store it on a network share, or in some sort of synchronized storage, self hosted or not (next cloud, sync thing, Google drive, whatever). It's just up to you. If you have it open on your PC and you add an entry on your phone, your PC won't "overwrite" it, but integrates any changes you're making there at the same time.

    For example the android client has direct support for a long list on storage services for this exact reason.
