Description
I researched several alternatives and I liked these two:
Buttercup https://buttercup.pw/: the standard unix password manager
- Free
- Has GUI
- Has app
- Can store database on cloud services, e.g. Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.
pass https://www.passwordstore.org/:
- Free
- Multiple platforms
- Has GUI
- Has app (kind of hard to setup)
- Has CLI
- Can version control with Git
- Can store databse on Git hosts, e.g. GitHub.
- Kind of hard to setup, unless you enjoy the teminal, ssh keys, and stuff.
