I use 1password, I used KeePass for years but it didn't work will on Android so I moved on.
Also using 1Password, works great for what my family needs.
I just lead the migration from LastPass to 1Password for the business I work at. It was really prompted by the breaches at LP and their poor handling of it. For personal stuff, I just did whatever I was doing at work because the business plans come with free licenses for personal accounts.
I use OneNote, with a bunch of coded words that mean other things and mix and match those to make longer passwords that are all different. Because I'm too lazy for a real app, and this is secure enough and useful enough.

Self hosted Bitwarden is the bees knees.
Keepass on OneDrive, so I can access it from my computer and phone.
Vaultwarden for work, KeePass and KeePassDroid for private use.
Bitwarden. I left LastPass about 3 years ago and haven’t looked back. I pay for bitwarden so I can use the TOTP feature and because i can’t wrap my head around the recovery process for my wife if something were to happen to me. I think another, more technically fluent human will need to be involved if that ever comes to pass.

KeePassXC and Nextloud to sync things between devices…
Bitwarden, I use it everywhere. I even wrote a Bitwarden app for my Linux phone.

I use KeePassXC in my linux desktop, KeePassDX in my android smartphone and syncthing-fork/syncthing to sync modifications between all devices. The encrypted database (long passphrase generated with Diceware method) never goes online. I also use yubikeys and multi factor auth for all important accounts
Bitwarden. I used to use LastPass but got terrified of their security.
I used to use 1Password standalone, but they moved away from it and started only selling password management as a service and I really didn't want that, so I'm running Bitwarden now on a private VaultWarden instance for myself and my wife. It's been great and is a good option if you want to run your own platform and not use Dropbox or other third party cloud storage or platforms for the data. Obviously, you're then responsible for backing the data up, etc., but I like the flexibility and data ownership of it.
Dashlane. I need a service where I can share/manage things for my elderly parents, and Dashlane is easier for that after LastPass became a dumpster fire
I've started using Bitwarden after two of my coworkers quit to go work at Bitwarden. Really nice interface, and very easy to use
