I use Bitwarden for shared passwords with my family (using an Organisation).

For my personal passwords, I prefer keeping a local KeePass vault (I access over a local network drive, VPN in elsewhere).

I totally agree that primitives are some of the least important parts of choosing password managers, but what I like about KeePass is that you can use Argon2 as the password derivation function and specify your hardness factors. Because my laptop and desktop have a strong-enough CPU and I don't mind waiting 20-or-so seconds before the first unlock, I can set quite high values for this.



I love that KeePass works with pretty much whatever sync service you prefer. Personally, I use it with Google Drive and it even works with Android/iOS clients. However, would definitely recommend KeePassXC for desktop.


The browser integration is... Crap though especially compared to 1Password. Is there even a Safari integration?


Dev here.. Thanks for the feedback. Please note that you're comparing a big product to a small open source software :) Of course would like to know how to make the extension better, so if you want to help us, make an issue to GitHub, thanks. Safari integration is coming eventually.
