I am afraid of a private company being responsible for my passwords but also not confident in my own ability to manage any sort of password manager across all my devices. What do people do?

#2For cloud-synched across devices: BitWarden.
For maximum security (no cloud sync): KeePassXC
In both cases an essential feature applies: if you forget your master password you've lost access to your password database.

This. Hands down.
The downside is that is cloud based.

KeePass seems to sync via a preferred cloud provider fine.

1Password is making choices for the business at the cost of security. Sucking people's password vaults into their cloud is very not cool. Additionally removing the local vault only option is another business first decision.
It's only a matter of time before 1Password has a real security problem because the business forces at 1Password appear to be much stronger than the engineering forces.
