1Password Alternatives
I'm using Firefox + 1Password classic (that does not require syncing all your passwords with the cloud)
However today it just stopped working, I think 1Password guys just broke sth by accident or on purpose
Do you know any good alternative that works on Mac OS + IOS and syncs locally without "the cloud"?
I can’t recommend Bitwarden[0] enough.
For me it checks all boxes, and includes some other other nice-to-have’s:
- open source
- has mobile/web/desktop/CLI clients
- can be self hosted

Bitwarden. The free tier is sufficient for personal use in my experience, although I choose to pay the small fee for “premium” (I forget what they cal it).
I switched from lastpass after they removed their free tier and have never looked back.
It is free and open-source software, it looks good and works well across all the platforms I use.
If you don't want to use the cloud KeepassXC on macOS and KeePassium or Strongbox on iOS are probably your best choice. Personally I'm happy with using Bitwarden, which you can self-host.
SaaS Pass Password manager and authenticator.
The browser extension is available on Firefox and is protected by passwordless MFA as well. It is free for personal use.
There is an enterprise version separately.
disclaimer: I worked on UI and UX stuff
Every alternative to 1Password that I’ve looked at falls down on at least one or two different fronts when compared.
I know where I would go looking for a current list of alternatives (via http://alternative.to), if I should be in a position where I can’t use my first choice.
But so far, nothing has forced me to make that kind of decision.
Another vote for Bitwarden. I can confirm that it works flawlessly, does not gobble up ram in Chrome and is user friendly.
I'm not sure what "sth" is, but there was an outage at AWS today. It's possible it depended on a connection to us-east-1.
How does Bitwarden make money when it offers a free version that can be used in the long term?
I can't recommend KeepassXC enough! Its completely offline and also has a browser exetension.
