It never made sense to me to put password managers in the cloud. Regards to what you intend it to do, you’re making it accessible to a wider audience than necessary. And yet, I’m using iCloud. It’s time for a change.

I’m thinking of just running a locally hosted password manager on my home server and letting my devices sync with it somehow when I’m at home. I have a VPN into my home network when I’m away that automatically triggers when I leave the house, so even that’s not that big an issue, but I’m really not familiar with what’s gonna cleanly integrate with all my stuff and be easy to use. All I know is I wanna kill the cloud functionality of my setup.

I already have a jellyfish server so I figured I would just throw this onto that. Any suggestions?

    this one, OP. no need to introduce the horror that’s a:

    • hosted app (why?!)
    • client app is electron crapware
    • the client app doesn’t even have full functionality, you have to use the web UI for some tasks

    edit: I’m obviously speaking about the bitwarden/vaultwarden horror. keepassXC is none of them things.

      KeepassXC is the only thing that makes sense to me.

      I don’t want all my passwords stored with some huge target like lastpass or bitwarden.

      Encrypted local (and synced) DB is the only way.
