KeePassXC with the browser extension on Windows, Linux.
And then KeePassDX on Android
Autofill works as well as any other password manager in my experience. Android has some native support for autofill via password managers, and there’s also a KeePassDX virtual keyboard you can use.
On PC I find the browser extension to be more than adequate but copy-pasting is also possible with time-based automatic clearing of the clipboard (so your passwords don’t get accidentally leaked through it, or at least reduce the chances)
One of my bigger/more niche reasons for using KeePassXC/DX is that it’s able to use a YubiKey as part of the database encryption. It uses the challenge-response feature, using the key’s response to enhance the database encryption so that the key becomes part of your password in a way and the key part of the password changes every time you save the database.
In some ways this is more inconvenient as I need to insert/tap my key every time I save the database (and the first time I unlock it) but I think it’s worth it for the additional security. This also works with KeePassDX through an NFC tap of my key.
But for most people a strong matter password and maybe a keyfile will be sufficient, and SyncThing makes keeping it automatically updated between devices quick and painless.
If you don’t have the same misgivings about cloud-based services that some of us do, then BitWarden is a great alternative. Especially if you self-host with VaultWarden.
For me, I prefer to have my database always under my control and only sync on networks I trust and I haven’t found SyncThing to be any less convenient than hosting my own VaultWarden server.
I know I’m a bit late here but what I use is:
