Keepass. Keep it simple.

If you want to roll your own with keepass that's fine, but most people will want a more comprehensive solution.

I switched from keepass to Bitwarden because individual entries started randomly disappearing. I'm still discovering missing accounts after switching a couple of weeks ago. Sometime to do with how keepass was opening the files, because when an entry went missing it was gone even from backup files I hadn't touched since before the entry disappeared.

Sound like something you did with replacing files. KeePass is dead simple, and that's why it's great.

[–] Liz@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago

Nah, the timeline looks like this:

  1. use account on main
  2. create backup
  3. use account on main
  4. account goes missing from main.
  5. check backup, account also missing from backup.

Like, it should be in the backup, I proved it was in the original before and after creating the backup. Heck if I know why they went missing.

3rd party sync of the database can have a lot of problems
