I use pass[1], which is a command line tool to store gpg encrypted passwords in a local git repo.
I share the git repos between different machines using my own servers. All remote mirrors are synced over SSH using git-remote-crypt[2], which additionally encrypts all remotely stored files - including the metadata (e.g. paths and file names of the files) of the remote git repo itself.
On mobile I like to torture myself and enter the passwords manually.
I definitely wouldn't trust any SaaS password manager.

- fugalfervor 5y agoPass will generate QR codes for you, which is much easier than typing the passwords manually. But you have the trust the QR code software and the system clipboard, which is up to you to decide. I really like pass because the source code is short enough, and simple enough, to verify its security to one's own satisfaction.
- nor-and-or-not 5y agoThanks for mentioning. I haven't tried that, yet. Yes, that was my reason to settle on pass as well. Plus it has a healthy community discussing in the mailing list and also many eyes looking at the source.
