The new KeePassXC update is very cool! The KeePass ecosystem is what I prefer since it's all local, no server shenanigans (Syncthing can be used for shared password database between devices, even on iOS devices with Synctrain, though I daily drive Linux and Android!)

ChiPass is also neat as an alternative to KeePassXC (it is a community fork) if you don't like the latter's LLM policies, and you also have Secrets if you use GNOME (available on mobile Linux too, awesome!). Secrets is missing features though (no favicons and limited icons, not very customisable, no browser extension support)
