KDE Wallet seems fine. It has integration with everything including Chrome.

OpenPassword's Blimey library supports read and write for the Agile Keychain format, written in Python. The GUI is still an early prototype.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned https://www.passwordmaker.org/. It takes a different approach, but works surprisingly well.

Just discovered a new password manager yesterday that I didn't have time to review (try, trust ...) : http://enpass.io/ It seems to be available for every platform possible. Even if I'm perfectly happy with keepassx, I'll problably give it a try for its prettier interface.

Has someone already used this one ?

I tried it on Linux and I was not impressed at all.

Lastpass ( http://lastpass.com/ ) has been my holy grail of vital cross-platform apps for many years now, as I've switched from Linux to Mac and back and forth and always with the Windows. Sure, it's a browser plugin, but it works just as well with Chrome and Safari (and probably Firefox and, , IE). Their touch-unlockable iOS app is just icing on the cake. I'm not getting a dime for this endorsement. It's just been a…

I use Lastpass, but it seems a tad janky. It's saving grace is that it's ubiquitous and works on every platform I can think of.

Something I like with 1Password is the UX, browsers plugins works really good and with the same UI as the application. After a try, It's painful to migrate from 1Password to lastpass...

I moved from 1Password to LastPass for a few reasons not related to UX:

1. Platform support: 1Password only supports Windows and OS X. I use more than those, and want to maintain the ability to jump between platforms at will. 2. Pay twice for OS X and Windows. Seems extortionate. 3. Browser support: I want to be able to try out browsers. At the time I made this decision, 1Password actually reduced the number of browsers they support.

I use pwgen/grep/echo to manipulate a plaintext file on a ... encrypted filesystem. Good enough?

Sounds good enough to me, there is also Pass [1] if you want something that is just slightly more heavy weight. [1]: http://www.passwordstore.org/

Very good tool. I will take a look. (I have used my script for years, it's worth switching to a better thing.)

I use keepassx ( https://www.keepassx.org/ ). Works well and I am able to sync it with ownCloud I have on a VPS. Also, I only use my machines to log on to services, can't bring myself to trust anyone else's machine. For android use, I have Keepass2Droid ( https://keepass2android.codeplex.com/ )

Unless that VPS you run Owncloud on is hosted on hardware you have under your own control, it is not on your own machine. The acronym VPS ('virtual private server') is a bit of a misnomer as it is not as private as it may seem since anyone with access to the supervisor will have access to your virtual-not-so-private-server.
