KeePass is a great middle-ground, which I've been using for the last decade (at least). Storing the vault is on you, it just makes it easy to keep stuff organised.

I did this for years too until mobile devices became popular. I have ~4 mobile phones for various things (yes this isn't normal) and ~4 different computers/laptops I use. Trying to keep a Keypass in sync between them is a nightmare. A proper password manager (Bitwarden or other) removes all that hassle. I have fingerprint unlock on the the mobiles that support fingerprint, face unlock on the devices that support that etc. I have browser addons to make password entry quick and easy while remaining secure.

Once I moved to a password manager I realised how clunky and poor dragging a Keypass vault around was.

		Fair enough. I don't use it on mobile (I try to do the fewest things possible on mobile so I manage without a password manager).

This! I’m using Strongbox on macOS and iOS and it’s just sooo good. It integrates with Apple’s AutoFill API and feels native - just like Apple’s Passwords app. But all the entries are in a KeePass database which I can sync via SyncThing, iCloud, Dropbox, whatever. And if the application should fail, I can use any other KeePass-compatible app or KeePass itself to get to my secrets.
