I see, thanks. Have you considered moving to Bitwarden?

Yes actually, I have personally onboarded several people to BitWarden! (Including manually migrating their accounts, setting passwords and passkeys, etc) However, I dislike the centralization and lack of control. There was a paper discussed within the past couple days on HN about what a malicious BitWarden server was capable of, despite BitWarden's marketing. I believe BitWarden's team responded promptly and appropriately to the research.

VaultWarden is a good compromise (offers the choice of SQLite or Postgres under the hood), putting you in charge of the primary server, but it is honestly overkill for a single personal user compared to a kdbx file on a webdav share.

Maybe. I'm looking into VaultWarden for my personal passwords because keeping a KBDX file up to date on iOS is painful (without a corporate cloud backing).

Hey I’m with you here actually. Synctrain on iOS makes it bearable, and actually wakes itself up periodically in the background to do a sync. It’s not as good as it could be, but far better than the alternatives. Otherwise you can spin up WebDAV and direct connect via keepassium. Both work well in my usage.

Good tip, I'm going to check that out!
