    I realise now that I can think of one too. Which is that you don’t need to host it anywhere if you use something like Syncthing.

        Bitwarden works offline. Obviously can’t save to the server, but reading from what’s already on your local machine works just fine.

          Isn’t it easier then just to use a (keepass) file? Also we carry phones around where we need secrets, too etc.

            I use keepassXC for work and I only use it on one machine at a time. I don’t have any experience syncing it around to multiple devices, so you might have a better perspective than I do on that.

            For personal use, I self host vaultwarden and use it on my desktop and Android phone. I’m able to use the bitwarden app just fine on my phone, even when I turn on airplane mode and am unable to sync.

      I set up a simple sync service with FolderSync (similar to Syncthing) on Android for my family, that preserves their mobile files on a server hosted SMB share. Haven’t even looked at storage encryption though. You can’t underestimate a simple yet effective solution, sometimes so simple it flies under the radar.
