KeePass users continue to live the stress free live.

I've managed to avoid several security breaches in last 5 years alone by using KeePass locally on my own infra.

I don't understand how this solves the issue in this case.

Bitwarden vaults were not compromised, there was a problem in a tool you used to access the secrets.

What makes it impossible for KeePass access tools to have these issues?

I need my passwords to be accessible from my infrastructure and my phone. How do you achieve this with KeePass? I assumed it was not possible, but in fairness, I haven't really gone down that rabbit hole to investigate.

Which is great for Hacker News users that can maintain their own infra. But if we're talking "stress free", that's not an answer for the average user...

Ok, single file, blah, blah. Realistically how do you sync that and how do you resolve conflicts? What happens if two devices add a password while offline, then go online?

the only thing I can't find to do with keepass is how back up it in the cloud, like if you encrypt your back up, then where do you save that password, then where do you save the password for the cloud provider?.
