  i mean eachch of the individual programs that can load your keepass keyring is a password manager.

  the keyring itself isn’t a password manager and the main reason why i use it is because each of the individual programs that i actually use to open it (keepassxc on windows, keepassdroid on my phone, keeweb on my vps…) can use the same file with the same specification that is shared everywhere.

  i’m not bound to any particular program with a particular set of features. just use anything that can open that file format from a place where i choose to host it.

    Oh, I run the KeePass program on windows. I guess that’s why I’m confused.

    But yes, I use keepassXC on Linux and keepassium on iOS

  I believe they’re argueing, as it can store more than passwords, it’s not purely a password manager.
