What do you use for syncing your password manager between your Android phone and your PC? Apparently Nextcloud doesn’t support two-way syncing on Android for some reason, and Syncthing-Fork is still untrustworthy since the disastrous handover. The AI generated profile picture of researchxxl doesn’t exactly inspire confidence either, neither does his GitHub bio:

Hi! My name is Jonas and I like to use my coding skills from games and modding to continue work on the Syncthing for Android wrapper.

Everything about this person screams vibe coder.

Bitwarden is an alternative, but I don’t like how non-standard it is. It’s cumbersome to manage and backup, meanwhile the KeePass format is just a file that I can backup wherever and however I want and there are many frontends to choose from.

Have you solved this?

    I like the idea of using git, and there are people using it with their KeePass database (here’s an example), but I don’t think it’s optimal. If you want to use git, pass is probably the better option, but that brings in a whole lot of other problems.

    I’ve started using Nextcloud to sync my database and it’s worked out fine so far. Though it would be nice to use something like git that I use all the time regardless, right now the whole bloated Nextcloud stack I have hosted only syncs my small password database haha.
