    I’m surprised I don’t see more people recommending KeePassDX! I agree and feel much more secure knowing exactly where my encrypted password vault is.

    Also I recommend that people use Syncthing alongside KeePassDX so you can host your own cloudish environment to share the password vault between your devices. Keepass 2 is a great Windows/Linux application for interfacing with the .kbdx vault file format used by KeePassDX.

      I have to chime in here, just because of how this post is written: Keepass 2 is not “a great application for files used by KeePassDX”. It’s the original. So if anything, KeePassDX is riding on KeePass 2, not the other way round. Sorry for my nitpicking, this is a “honor where honor is due” thing to me ;)
