Truely does, yeah - just in case you were wondering like me: it syncs to file, which are supposed to be shared via some cloud sync mechanism you provide.
The KeePass ecosystem has gotten a little bit better. It's still not exactly seamless. File sync across all of Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android seems to involve either proprietary user-hostile sync tools or dealing with lots of jank.
As far as I can tell, the only competitor with a similar feature set that even claims to be open-source is Proton Pass. But I can't find any information on whether the server side can be self-hosted.
KeePass as an ecosystem (and possibly other file-based ecosystems) is something I’ve used for around a decade, and while it’s not perfect, I am 100% sure it will be there for me in another decade. I want to own my passwords, and KeePass feels like a safe pair of hands that won’t turn hostile when I’m not looking.
IMO, the secret to keeping the passwords synced with KeePass, is to make sure your client has a direct feature to sync the passwords database to a remote server - SFTP, DAV, SMB, etc. Then all you need to do is to set up a single remote file share to serve that file. Or sync manually, assuming your passwords change slowly - KeePass 2 can sync changes automatically between KDBX files.

What's the best story for iOS or MacOS?
