KeePassXC and Bitwarden are the best password managers in existence right now: KeePassXC if you want to be disconnected from the cloud and Bitwarden if you want both the convenience of cloud-based password management AND high security.

Nope, pass (Password Store) is way better IMO.

> (from what I've heard 1Password only recently even added a Linux-compatible client). Just plugins for Firefox and Chrome, AFAIK, actually. And a command line client that's just a wrapper for the website. No full-featured client available. KeePassXC can be a better option for interop with 1pass than 1pass is, on Linux, depending on what you need.
No, they have a client now. https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/114964/1passwor... HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24054112

>best password managers in existence right now I am using 1Password with a standalone licence (sunk cost, so 'free' doesn't matter much. Also, C$70 is essentially free when it comes to securing my digital life). I sync a vault with a few co-workers via Dropbox and this is sufficient for us, no need for 1Password.com 'cloud' yet. We like the UI, and to our knowledge 1Password has the best track record for security, wi…
Source code access, and being free of charge seems to be the main things you would get compared to 1Password. Also, great Linux support (from what I've heard 1Password only recently even added a Linux-compatible client). But to me it sounds like you have a solution you are very happy with, and you don't mind paying for that solution, so my recommendation would be to stick with it. Although, as a happy user of KeePass…
Any reason to switch over from KeePass to KeePassXC? I'm only using Windows so the cross platform argument doesn't hit me actually.

Maybe I simply didn't search good enough, is there any possibility to have such functionality in KeePassXC?

Started using Keypass about a year ago, I really like it. Just wondering if Dropbox is considered a safe place to store the DB files? I did this for a while, but then I got paranoid and switched to something fully encrypted. For sharing between devices I found Firefox Send to be useful (before it went down, hope it comes back), also Keybase filesystem is one of my go-tos as well. Maybe I’m being overly cautious, but…
Your database is encrypted by default. Additional encryption won't hurt, of course, but you can absolutely use Dropbox.
Another comment mentioned using a key-file, so maybe I will revisit that approach, since I used password only when I started.

Syncthing is a nice alternative to Dropbox. If you use multiple computers at different locations, you could, say, use Syncthing to sync your KeepassXC database between your home computer and your phone, and between your phone and your work computer, without it ever touching a third party service.
It has worked for me perfectly for quite a long time. All my personal documents and photos are synced between an Android phone, my RPi 4 and my laptop. I haven't touched the settings for years. It just always works, 100% perfectly. I don't understand why it isn't more popular.

A habit I carried over from using KeePassXC is that I don't use a browser extension. Call it paranoia but I don't want the browser process to have the ability to reach into my password manager. What I do is pin the Bitwarden tab open and just copy & paste where needed. For the desktop app it would be awesome if it had an auto-type feature like KeePassXC (something that mystifies coworkers who see that in action for t…
You're losing out on certain types of phishing protections by doing this. You're also potentially opening yourself up to any apps/tools that are keeping an eye on your clipboard if you're copying and pasting. Auto-type might help with that, but I also wouldn't hold my breath for such a feature coming.
I think the separation of concerns outweighs the KeepassXCBrowser integration part.
If your computer is compromised (meaning occasional copy&paste is not secure) you have WAY more problems than only Keepass and phishing.
