Love KeePassXC - it's a beautiful and speedy program which simply just works without ever causing any problems. The original KeePass always struck me as a tad heavy due to its somewhat archaic aesthetic and dependency on Mono, whereas KeePassXC looks modern and requires minimal resources and dependencies.

I combine it with KeePassium on iOS and Resilio Sync for synchronising across my main and mobile devices. (Syncthing doesn't offer an iOS client, sadly, hence the choice of using Resilio)

I use Strongbox on iOS which I highly recommend checking out. It's payed (one time) but open source
> payed (one time)

This is true, but pricing is currently $3/mo, $15/year, $60 lifetime. So the one time payment is larger than most.

I've easily gotten $60 worth of value out of it. Happy to pay that kind of money for software that I use frequently and that works well.
There's also KeePassium, where you can use one database for free. I use several, so Strongbox for an Apple family account was worth the price.
I'm not iOS user myself, but I hear Möbius sync (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/möbius-sync/id1539203216) is reasonably good Syncthing client wrapper for it.
I could never get mobius to behave as I wanted.

I host nextcloud and use strongbox. Nextcloud supports WebDAV and strongbox works well with syncing through that.
