I switched from Bitwarden to keepassxc (pc) and keepassdx (android) and installed syncthing (pc) and syncthing-fork (android) to sync the db file a couple of weeks ago - all works fine, no dramas.
I've been super happy with Bitwarden for years now. But with their new CEO being a big Private Equity guy, I am wary of the enshitification risk.
I've been looking for an alternative that works on both Android and other platforms. I use my phone for a lot of random stuff, so my password manager working on my phone is essential.
Has KeyPassDX been good? Does it work with the same password database as KeyPassXC?
KeepassDX is great, works most of the time finding fields in Firefox. Can use biometrics to unlock your database if desired too.
Uses the same databases as I use on my laptop / desktop with no issues.
Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah they use kbdx so it works out of box for both. I think it even technically works for the original Keepass.
Haven't used KeyPassDX much yet outside of some quick tests, but the autofill is really good because it shows up as a slim popup tab option on your keyboard where the typeing suggestions usually go.
Nice, I'll have to give it a try.
Gonna do this soon as well. Used to use syncthing for auto photo transfers and I'm tired of Bitwarden's crappy UI and terrible interop with autofill/autogenerate.
It'll probably never happen due to the nature of KBDX, but I would kill to make a resilient native sync feature so that orgs wouldn't be locked into proprietary vaults which drags you into vendor lock in when one of them starts to tank.
