I love the Infinity Reddit app (but gonna miss it).

      I’ve seen Bitwarden show up in this thread a few times. I’ve been a longtime user of KeePassX. Is there any particular reason I should consider switching?

        What made me choose bitwarden is the emergency access feature.

        It allows to designate someone as an emergency contact. This person can request access to your vault and if you don’t deny the request then they will have access after x days.

        This way, if something happens to me then someone in my close family can still access my account.

        I got the case recently with my brother in law who got into an accident and thanks God his laptop was not locked so my sister could access his accounts.

        Because if not it can be a nightmare ! Having to deal with all the utilities company, harassing you because you did not pay the bill that arrived on a locked email account, then not being able to pay the bill anyways because you have to connect on they website … on top of getting your husband and the father of your child in the hospital in a coma.

          This is a very good point. I’ve often wondered about a safe and secure method of getting my important passwords to a family member in the unfortunate event that something should happen to me.

          That said, I’m very sorry to hear about your brother-in-law.

        IMO KeePassXC’s UI is way better than Bitwarden’s, but Bitwarden has very convenient syncing and a browser extension that actually works with almost any website.

        I used to use KeePassXC and KeepassDX on my phone, syncing them through Syncthing. But depending on Syncthing and the clients always making the right changes to the one database file without destroying something never felt good and always having to run Syncthing in the background on my phone probably didn’t do its battery life any favors.

        Add to that some frustrations with the browser extension and that’s why I decided to switch to Bitwarden in the end.

        There is a new maintained fork of keepassx called keepassxc as well if you want to stick with keepass

          I noticed that as well. I’m going to try using both for a week or two, just to see how it goes. KeePassXC seems identical to KeePassX, which is nice. But maybe Bitwarden will win me over; it seems quite popular.

          If you can get Nectcloud running there’s a KeePass integration addon there that can also make it cloud based and self hosted! The Keepass2Android app can even sync with it directly.

            I would definitely use KeePassDX if I had an Android phone.

          I guess that’s a pretty convincing reason. I think I’ll give it a try! Thanks!
