Hi. Any suggestions for password managers which are made and mantain in UE? Share your opinions.
If you are talking about online services, Proton is a Swiss option and for what it’s worth, Bitwarden offers an EU instance. Both are freemium OSS. You could also self-host Bitwarden. If you are looking for offline options, there are plenty. KeePass2 comes to mind.
keepassxc is based in germany, as it seems.
Here’s a guide for it: https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2025/03/18/installing-keepassxc-and-yubikey/
it’s not that complicated.
I know that Bitwarden is headquartered in California, but they do have Bitwarden.eu, which I would think is operating inside the EU?
Even better, self-host Vaultwarden !
- Works everywhere (android, iOS, linux, windows, macOS…)
- TOTP
- Works without connection and if the instance is offline.
- Add notes, customize URI…
- password/username/passphrase generator
- …
A lot more to it :)
Keepassxc. I’m a little skeptical to hosted solutions
You are not the only one
https://keepassxc.org/ is the only password manager I trust. It’s fully offline and you can “host” your database wherever you want.
If you ever want to self host … psono is always an option, but it has a hairy setup.
It looks nice, but it has no Passkey support, right?
Don’t know about the EU, but this is the only one you’ll ever need.
What if you don’t hate yourself?
