    Regarding Password Managers, you can put a little extra effort into setup with KeePass + SyncThing to avoid using 3rd parties at all.

    Highly recommend not relying on a cloud provider for this kind of thing. You’re just asking for one of two things to happen:

    1. Their servers get compromised
    2. They decide to shut down

    I know you can self-host with vaultwarden, but if you’re not a self-hoster then it’s a little bit simpler to setup SyncThing and use the kdbx format.

      Thats a good point, I might set that up myself!

      At the moment I do a once-a-week encrypted export from BitWarden and Aegis (authenticator) and put those exports onto an encrypted USB pen drive to avoid the issues you mention but I think your way is probably better.

        You mentioned another excellent tool, Aegis!

        I use it too, and I have it set to auto-export every time I add a new OTP provider to my SyncThing system. Since you can encrypt the exports, it fits nicely and have my OTPs available everywhere.
