Keepass all the way. Checks all the boxes. Access via browser: If you have a Nextcloud instance, theres a NC-Addon to open kdbx files in the browser.
re: Bitwarden I tried it and it wasn't sufficient for me. Is it now possible to also store and generate TOTPs? Can you store SSH keys and retrieve them directly from the password storage?
You definitely do not want to generate TOTPs in your password manager. That makes it a single point of failure in the event of a breach.
There’s only two real choices imo.
Bitwarden or Keepass (KeePassXC for desktop, you’ll need one of many app choices for your phone).
Keepass you would sync to your own cloud provider and use a key file for protection.
Bitwarden is the obvious answer that fits all your criteria.

As someone who uses Bitwarden, what’s the advantage of using buttercup?
Definitely Bitwarden, but there‘s also a new product from Proton called Proton Pass. It works similarly to Bitwarden, but a few features are still missing.
Currently using bitwarden. Moved over from LastPass. Free and works on browser plus mobile. Like it so far.
Gratifying to see all the love for Bitwarden!
Bitwarden would be a good fit for what you are looking for, especially the cross-platform aspect. Keepass-derived solutions typically require trusting multiple developers, whereas Bitwarden is developed and maintained by a single team.
Since you don't want to selfhost anyway just use the one built-in to your browser. Nowadays you can set up synch with a password
I am a fan of Vault Warden.
He specifically stated that he doesn't want to self host
Thanks for this! I have been using iCloud Keychain for a while and was generally satisfied. However, it wasn’t until I recently switched from desktop Safari to Arc that I considered a third party password manager, but was stuck in decision paralysis.
Given the overwhelming responses in this post, BitWarden it is!
I've been using Google's password manager mainly for convenience but had been looking to switch for a while, this thread made up my mind to switch to Bitwarden!
I think bitwarden fills all of your requirements.
I like the Password for Nextcloud app. I self-host mine, but I think there might be Nextcloud instances that you can access. It is encrypted, and has an app for smartphones.
For important things Keepass (which I sync in Onedrive). For casual things whatever the browser offers... or some random long password and password reset ._.
Been using 1Password since 2010. I tried Bitwarden a few years ago just because of the price. In theory it ticks all boxes but it was a pain to use. I does not flow like 1P, some things did not work the way I expected and it looks like shit. Don't ask for details because I forgot. So I switched back. The new design of 1Password made it a little worse but it's still great and the integration into iOS and macOS is amazing.
protonpass for sure.
Bitwarden is great, but it's way too easy to lock yourself out of it if it's your first pw manager ever.
