Which password manager to use?
Which password manager to use?
I currently use KeepassXC that is synced through NextCloud. The sync isn't very elegant, especially on my phone. So I'm looking for a new password manager, which has a native server sync support that I can self host. What do y'all recommend? I need at least a phone app and a browser integration that can autofill.
You're viewing a single thread.
Selfhosted VaultWarden with Bitwarden browser apps and KeyGuard on my phone, which I like better than the Bitwarden app.
Correct me if I'm wrong: if something happens to your vaultwarden instance, aren't you at risk of losing everything? I do use bitwarden, but I could never self host it. Too important. ID rather use keepass with syncthing so that more than one of my devices have my passwords
That's what backups are for. No matter what solution I use, I would need backups. I used to use LastPass, but that just relied on LastPass to do the backups. I backup the database, but you can also periodically export the data and back that up somewhere securely on your own if you want it in a different format.
I also self host Vault Warden. I have my vault automatically exported to Google Drive as an encrypted copy. So worst case I can download from there, and import it to a new password manager or another Bitwarden instance if my server borks.
Since I started using a password manager, I've basically forgoten every one of my other passwords. I wouldn't be able to log in to my drive
Same here. But the bitwarden apps have a local copy of the vault. So you can always prevent them from syncing and use it to get the password. Assuming you have your phone still.
You can always have an offsite copy of the vault on a HDD somewhere. It'll be outdated, but at least it'll have the Google account. :)
Maybe. Why do you self host it? I'm not saying there are no benefits. I just think it's not worth it
Bitwarden has features I wanted and was better than the browser password manager I used previously. I already selfhost other apps so adding another one wasn't an issue. Plus it's free.
