+1 on 1Password's dedication to fixing issues. I had an obscure field selection issue on their web view and pinged the support email. It was fixed a few days later and they updated me on it.

I switched to 1Password from KeePass after 5 or so years because I just got tired of maintaining the data locally and keeping it in sync on my devices that I need the passwords on. I just backup the 1Password database locally now to calm some paranoia.

Is there any reason not to host a Keepass database on any generic cloud service? That's what I'm doing at the moment. I've never encountered any sync issues or conflicts, and take backups every now and then in case that happens.

No reason, yours is the best option IMO. You have a secure container, with a sync service of your choice. It's more transferable so you can easily migrate if you want to.

I’ve been a happy one-password customer for several years and I switched to the family subscription model to get my parents away from their little notebook of passwords. I had self-hosted a PHP based password manager for a handful of years, before switching to 1P because I wanted a “real app” with tighter OS integration. I’ve had 3 gripes and this solved one of them. The other 2 are

1) Their insistence on 1PasswordX- I want a desktop app, I want tight integration, the browser extensions work just fine if I need something quickly. 2) Poor/no support for key management- storing ssh keys as an encrypted notes is a bad work around.

As someone who can’t install 1Password many places where I have worked, 1Password X has been an amazing option.

1Password X is a sad excuse for a Linux client. Compared to the great experience one gets on MacOS (haven't used it on Windows), 1Password X is a child's toy, and a bad one at that. It did improve a bit not very long after I left 1Password, but Bitwarden hasn't been better.

I’m not saying it’s bad, it’s just grossly inferior to the native app on both macOS and Windows.

In defence of the notebook of passwords, there tends to be minimal overlap between opportunistic neighbourhood burglars and identity thieves.

[nemosaltat]

Fair point- I guess digitization was somewhat selfish. A centralized DB makes it easier when I’m trying to help them with something remotely, and the “Shared Vault” facilitates easy communal logins (Netflix, Hulu, etc...)

[sjwright]

100% agree and I did the same with my own parents.
