Does anyone know if the browser integration is similar to/better than Lastpass or Bitwarden? Does it even have browser integration?

It does have a browser integration. Available for Firefox, Chrome/Chromium/Vivaldi/Brave/Edge and Tor Browser.

  Pretty good I would say, not much worse than LastPass

I've been using it ever since ditching OSX in favor of Debian Linux. On OSX, I used 1password and the KeePassXC browser extension works just as fine. In fact, better, because 1Password stopped working for Chromium due to whatever proprietary cert requirement which wasn't met.

I use the browser extension all the time (Chrome). When it works, it works great. You can tell the extension to auto-fill and auto-submit, so that it feels like you had been logged in from the very beginning. The problem is, it works (in my experience) around 80% of the time. I'm guessing it's not on them since it requieres websites to follow certain standards in order to have autodetectable login form fields, but it's a pain nonetheless. Try it, it takes a couple mins to set up. The best feature IMO is the keyboard shortcuts to fill in details.

  Also, this is more niche, but I have it set to auto-fill HTTP Basic Auth credentials, which works perfectly since that's a well-established standard. I use Basic Auth for many of my LAN-only web services at home and KeepassXC + browser extension feels like having client-side certificate authentication or similar, feels like going through airport security without taking your stuff off into bins.

  Many non-standard fields may cause problems with the extension. You can always try to set Custom Login fields for a certain page which allows you to override input fields for username and password use.

In my experience, it's a lot worse which is why I switched. It constantly broke when Firefox updated. Usually the fix was to update keepassx but sometimes it was more complicated than that. Eventually it got to a point where I couldn't fix it. So I switched to bitwarden with a self hosted server and have had zero problems. It's also been a better, more reliable experience in other ways.

Just use this and forget about LastPass/Bitwarden. It has everything you need: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/passwords https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/passwords
