I've used 'Automatically save after every change' and 'Automatically reload database when modified externally', as the other comment says, with syncing via Syncthing. It wasn't in team, but between multiple devices - laptop, desktop, phone and with a NAS in the sync chain, so there is something always on.

Yet, the sync conflicts happened anyways. The first time it was quite shock, why my password doesn't work, but then I found the conflict password file and the password from there worked.

Your tool made it much easier, big thanks for creating it.

Maybe, if the keepassxc had in the UI, that it detected a sync conflict (that would involve a knowledge how the misc sync tools work) and offered merging them, I would probably stayed.

Ultimately, I switched to vaultwarden, on the same above-mentioned NAS. It does not have all the features of the keepassxc, but it is good enough for me, the sync problems disappeared, and the browser integration works a little bit better (doesn't complain that the main app isn't running, while it is).
