Seems most people are recommending Bitwarden! Is it free to selfhost? I'm new to selfhosting but I'd love to give this a shot.

Bitwarden. I've used a bunch of password managers, Bitwarden has been by far the best for me.
The mobile, desktop, and web app are all awesome and work great.
Self-hostable, open source, great feature set. Pricing is super reasonable for their cloud hosted features. Ui is simple, clean, makes sense, and so far I've had zero issues with syncing, saving, etc.
IMO, it's a great example of a FOSS application that looks and functions as good or better than the nicest closed source proprietary software.
This. Love Bitwarden
The passphrase generator is the best thing. Yes, I know, I should never see/need the password in clear text, but when you have to login onto something on your TV, it's nice to have words that make sense.
I'm happy with Bitwarden.
Bitwarden ftw!! Best $10 a year...... Looking to self host also...but would still donate the $10 a year, because its 100% worth it in my opinion

Definitely Bitwarden
I've been using Bitwarden for a while and I have no complaints, works pretty well.
Bitwarden user here. I used to use LastPass, but it's hard to beat free software that does the same thing just as well.
Self hosted Vaultwarden. It's great.
bitwarden has been great, no complaints!
BitWarden in personal life. Recently discovered my corporate overlords approve KeePass (no synching to my phone though). I'm pumped to have literally any pw vault solution.
No joke, 25% of the people in my office have a sticky note on the bottom of their keyboards. I do the odd security audit and I always check.

I have been using Bitwarden for a long time and never regretted it. If I wanted to have an offline password manager I would look to KeePassXC.
Bitwarden here. Was also a LastPass user. Switched when I retired so I did not have to worry about still keeping any old accounts from work. P.s. Also I like that I can have Bitwarden sync on my phone and my laptop.
I've been happy with Bitwarden thus far. Used Lastpass back in the day, but migrated over when the renewal prices started creeping up.
I’m also using Bitwarden currently.
I use KeePassXC (KeePassDX on mobile) synced via SyncThing for sensitive/important logins, and Bitwarden for practically everything else.
I've always just used Bitwarden even before I cared about privacy
Bitwarden is my go to
Bitwarden! Used to use LastPass but I'm glad I migrated a few years back. I prefer bitwarden now. It's easy to set up, use and multi platform.
Big fan of Bitwarden here.
Bitwarden
Bitwarden is the way to go. Used LastPass years ago when they suddenly switched to the paid model, then they could get fucked. Been with Bitwarden and haven't looked back (or around for alternatives, super happy)

Bitwarden since its open source, easy to use and cloud sync is sooo great
Started with Lastpass, but migrated to Bitwarden because of open source. And then came the trouble at Lastpass.
KeepassXC!
I know a bunch of people here have mentioned Bitwarden, but I would like to mention one feature that makes it superior to all others. You can integrate it to services like SimpleLogin, AnonAddy, Firefox Relay, DDG etc. and auto-generate email aliases within the Bitwarden extension. In theory it is more secure to not do this but it is such a huge QoL feature to just hit the randomize button in the extension to create an alias for a new login. It also populates the info field on simplelogin with something along the lines of "Auto-Generated by Bitwarden for: [website]"

I'm just on bitwarden, I was using keepass for awhile but getting the vault moved between devices was a pain, even with syncthing. If it got desynced it was a pain to fix
KeePassXC with the db synced by syncthing
One more for Bitwarden. You can even run your own local server and avoid using the cloud.
Bitwarden pro. Having OTP and all my passwords on my watch is a life changer.

Bitwarden for personal, 1Password for work stuff.
I much prefer Bitwarden
At the moment BitWarden, but I'm looking to go to selfhost a VaultWarden server. I've alrrady done it one time with a raspi but after some week it crashed out. Next time I'll use a x86 machine.
