- doodlesdev 3y agoIf you're looking for something that's offline first go for pass [0], gopass [1], or any keepass-compatible [2][3][4] password manager and sync the database yourself.

- isomorphic 3y agoBitwarden is cloud-based with synchronization to local caches. If you want total control over your data with Bitwarden you will need to run the server/cloud side. I'd caution that running a Bitwarden server is not for everyone, as one could make the security worse than the Bitwarden-company-hosted cloud service. I run Vaultwarden on my LAN, with no public/Internet facing service, and sync only on my LAN.
