Google Drive has begun choking on attempts to open KDBX files for writing and uploading. Especially on ChromeOS, we're having a difficult time when the vault is stored in Drive. This may be a deliberate design at Google, due to the fact that KeePass directly competes with their in-house Password Manager offering. I've implemented a long-term migration away from everything KeePass.

- NoZebra120vClip 3y agoBy contrast, I find the Authenticator and password management offerings from Google and Microsoft to be quite serviceable by now. They lack many cushy KeePassXC features, but someday will reach parity. The convenience and tight integration is so important. I always prefer first-party, bundled software above third-party. Especially because KeePass ecosystem is maintained by some kind of fly-by-night, pseudonymous Eurohackers, who knows what undesirable foreign influence is operative here. I already have very uneasy suspicions about the integrity of their supply chains and password generation capabilities. I'm very happy to fall into the arms of Big Tech whom we already trust for everything else (and if you personally refuse to maintain accounts with Google or Microsoft, remember that every single corporation and government does so anyway, with all your data at stake.)

They should never have been allowed to get that big in the first place. > The convenience and tight integration is so important. Freedom and competition are important, too.
