I want to use KeePassX/KeePassXC but haven't really found any iPhone clients with Dropbox syncing + Face ID unlock. So still with 1Password even though I'm not a big fan of it anymore. It works, so there is that.

I think Strongbox supports those features: https://github.com/strongbox-password-safe/Strongbox

I would like to throw out Bitwarden out there. Cross platforms, works on everything and can be self hosted if you so desire.

Requisite: Use bitwarden-rs if you're planning on self-hosting. https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs

Yes, this is a fantastic project. The official Bitwarden Docker image is kind of wonky, it needs some sort of license and you have to generate the docker-compose.yml, etc. It really doesn't make for a good automated process at all.

bitwarden_rs on the other hand, works just fine, never had an issue with it or incompatibility with the browser extensions or mobile apps.

KeepassXC is packaged in most distros and is open source.

It doesn't work with DUO 2FA yet so... I don't know how this can be out of beta.

I've been running the dev preview since early August, and it's been pretty good so far! Really pleased they're working on this.

I'm confused how the self hosting works. Doesn't it force you to give them an email address? Why is that necessary when self-hosting?

Does anyone know if this supports standalone licenses, or is it strictly subscription only?

It seems to be subscription only, just like the Windows and macOS versions.

EDIT: I was wrong about 1Password 7 for Windows and macOS, see further replies.

1Password supports standalone licenses, but they don't really advertise that or have pricing for it on the main website.

(note the text near the end regarding licensing)

Lack of 1password support on linux is the main thing keeping me on macos. Sounds like I might be switching back soon.

You might want to look at KeepassXC.

That does not come with a simple way to have your passwords and automatically though.

A better alternative in my opinion would be Bitwarden.
