Just learned @keepassxc is here!

KeepassXC is excellent. I’ve used it as my primary password manager for years, and it keeps getting better.

No Electron, local storage, plugins for Firefox. It’s awesome.

(And shout out to lwhsu@ for maintaining the #FreeBSD port).

How do you sync the password database across devices?

@aru @Ruben Schade :runbsd:🇦🇺🇸🇬 I've heard people use SyncThing and Nextcloud for it - I often use SSHFS to mount the directory containing the password vault

@silverwizard @Ruben Schade :runbsd:🇦🇺🇸🇬 @aru I store the password database on NextCloud through the synchronization client on Windows, and the password database has my NextCloud password in it. I'm retrieving the database using the iOS NextCloud app and open it using KeePassium.

I also store all my TOTP seeds in the database using the TOTP plugin in KeePassXC and it's a native feature in KeePassium.

I'm currently using Bitwarden, but I may switch to ProtonPass, once they are fully cross-platform. I need to have clients for Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Linux before I can switch, because I use all of those platforms on a daily basis, and that isn't going to change any time soon.

@gcvsa Might be worth trying KeePassXC then. Cross platform with native apps. I use it on macOS, Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows.

how do you synchronize your KeepassXC database between computers? I use LastPass, but it limits me to fetching passwords from my phone because I won’t pay.

I’d like to have something like the paid version of LastPass, but with some kind of federated local storage.

I wouldn’t mind storing the passwords on my VPS if KeepassXC allowed me to synchronize to it.

Can't wait for version 2.7.7 to be in the Ports, as it adds supports for Passkeys! 🎉
(I already use it on Windows and on SteamDeck/Linux)

PS: I also use Syncthing on all my PCs and also on my mobile phone, on which I run KeePassDX.
