The database is encrypted, so theoretically it doesn't matter if other people have it, but what a chad. I suppose these are not your real passwords, or are low-value ones, because there could be zero-days we don't know about.

And I was queasy of hosting mine on Dropbox.

A bunch of them have changed since I migrated to iCloud Passwords, but no, that is an actual real passwords database with every internet account of mine that I knew about as of around December 2024.

I tuned the encryption to take a short while to unlock for even a high-tier desktop CPU, to the tune of slow password hashes. I actually somewhat enjoyed the delay every time I opened up the database...

Well, if you somehow lose the file, I'm sure you can ask here and someone will have a copy. It is a nice artifact of the times.
