Call me Ishmael^wold-fashioned. I don’t trust the Internet with anything
sensitive. Even if the other party behaves trustworthy (trustwortily?). If
it’s on someone else’s system, it’s out of my reach. A password database not
only contains the passwords themselves, but naturally also what I have
passwords for in the first place.

On top of that, I don’t trust Android with sensitive stuff, either. Sure, I
have mail, calendar and contacts on my mobile devices (synced against a
local Radicale instance on my raspberry). But nothing that involves money;
No banking app, no paypal app, I don’t even have a credit card. The
exception is the app for our railway system that is directly linked to my
back account (but most of the times I buy the ticket at a vending machine
and pay cash).

So the natural answer for my password needs is keepass (by now the XC
variant). I sync it between my Linux machines with all other files using
unison.

I’m aware this doesn’t answer your question,

but I wanted to make a case for another viewing angle on the matter.
