Enpass is a really nice password app that works on Linux, and allows you to sync with various cloud providers. I have since switched to Password Store though which is open source and uses GPG for encryption, so you can pick your own algorithms.

I’ve been using 1Password every day for over 11 years now. The oldest passwords I’ve got stored are for Twitter and Dropbox (yes, the passwords have been changed but the records were first created in 2009). It’s one of those apps which has been made with proper craftsmanship and care, so while I’m not a Linux user, I’d have no problem recommending based solely on Agilebit’s reputation.
> It’s one of those apps which has been made with proper craftsmanship and care Is it? I've been using it for sometime as well but it seems like there is a lot of room for improvement. E.g: - Support for unlocking via Watch ID on the Mac. - Currently on iOS when searching for a password within an app, if a site prefix is included that doesn't match what's in 1Password the list will just show no results, with no way t…

The other versions are native. It's one of the things that sets 1Password apart. Is the Linux version Electron?
> The other versions are native. It's one of the things that sets 1Password apart. Is the Linux version Electron? Yes, it is very obvious from the screenshot that it’s built on top of Electron [1]. GTK nor Qt have that type of UI elements, they are obviously HTML elements stylized with CSS. Another hint is in the files contained inside the Debian package used during the Linux installation [2]: root@3cb1637b3070:/# ap…
Is it Electron based? I noticed the blog post said they used React to build the UI.

Yes. Not against Electron but maybe I'm underestimating the ui/ux complexity of a password manager since I have never use one.
KeepassXC is the perfect solution in my opinion. It is open source, has a huge number of features (that don't get in the way of basic usage), and has mobile apps and desktop apps that work well on all platforms. Right now I am using it on Windows, Mac, AND Linux, as well as my Android phone. I have it syncing over Dropbox, but you can sync it however you like. The Android app automatically fetches the latest version,…
I'm the same way. The most important parts of the KeePass ecosystem to me are: 1. It runs on every platform I currently use, as well as any platform I might care to use, whether or not that platform is sufficiently "popular" for a company to justify caring about it. 2. It isn't dependent on the continued healthy existence of a company to remain usable, as I could simply self-maintain in a worst case scenario. These a…

Maybe. It has some defenses against keyloggers. The local data is encrypted so the attacker would need your master password, which hopefully you wouldn’t have stored in plaintext on the same machine. Regardless, the idea is still that a secure password manager would put you in a better situation more often than would a plain text file, cloud notes, physical notebook/sticky, etc.
But the reasonable comparison wouldn't be "a plain text file" it would something like Jason Donenfield's pass ( https://www.passwordstore.org/ ) Now, there are some potential usability improvements they can offer by giving the passwords to "some company" but there's a serious price (not only financial) to pay for that. Also, because it's designed as a standard Unix tool if you're comfortable in Unix (as we may suppos…
I pulled the plug on 1password because I hate subscriptions. There is also no logical reason to pay agile bits for single-purpose back-end infrastructure when we already have dropbox, etc.. An encrypted password file is tiny. Subscription apps (and subscriptions in general) are simply not scalable in their current implementation.
Still rocking my 1Password 4 license on Windows and OSX from years ago with no plans on upgrading. When I’m finally forced to, I’ll simply switch to another product.
