people who managed to migrate to KeePass - was it worth it?

Keepass has been reliable across platforms and syncing methods for over a decade for me. TOTP key storage also works as intended.

It's not the prettiest software out there, but it just works.

I've never used a managed service, only KeePass. I just have a copy on my Google Drive and I use the Keepass2Android app to load the db directly from Drive. Outside of a few inconveniences it works really well.

For work I have a separate db where I keep work related passwords (ones for me personally, we have a on prem hosted service for team shared passwords) and I just check it into a git repo along with my notes and that works extremely well.

I've used KeePass (and its derivatives) for over a decade. It works across all my devices and I sync it with Syncthing. Currently I'm using KeePassXC with my YubiKey as an added authentication layer.

i’m assuming they mean a copy of the encrypted db, not the key
