I'd like to mention rook, my project, which is a secret-service-like tool backed by your Keepass DB. Not using a bespoke DB is both more secure, and more importantly, means you don't have to manually keep your passwords in sync across multiple password managers. It provides support for pin access which, when used with the Linux kernel keychain, can provide session-limited access to unlocked DBs.
Rook is in both the Arch AUR and Alpine Community repositories.
I find local password managers stronger than cloud password managers
Agreed.
I hope keepassxc is on the list. Also works like a charm on Windows 😉
It is in the second recommendation.
Eh... Keepass and KeepassXC are great sure, but they can't top Secrets when it comes to look and feel on GNOME desktops: https://flathub.org/apps/org.gnome.World.Secrets
