The best answer, as long as you never need to use your passwords in more than one device. Syncing a Keepass vault between PC and mobile is still tricky for some reason.
I do it all the time and it works fine. I designate my phone as my primary computing device and I always update my password database on that device and then synchronize it across to my computer using these things called USB flash drives
There's the problem - not everyone is able or willing to physically connect a separate device to manually transfer the password vault file (for example, on partially airgapped systems or corporate environments). I personally use a self-hosted Vaultwarden for that reason - I'd rather have my main password storage device be one that is safer from being stolen (my home server)
yeah no thanks, hard pass
