Any good cross multi-device alternatives?

Preferably with my own server (owncloud?) as a central keychain?

  Yeah that'd be great. I have a dirty solution of syncing my latest keychain backup with owncloud but that's merely for backup

  There's https://yithlibrary.herokuapp.com/ https://yithlibrary.herokuapp.com/ for a self hosted LastPass clone but unfortunately there's no Firefox or Chrome addons yet.

  I used KeePassX in the past but switched to 1Password since there was no browser support to speak of. Has that changed?

    If you run KeePass (not X), e.g. via Mono on Linux or natively on Windows, you can use the KeeFox Firefox plugin. I believe there are Chrome extensions as well. I didn't find a better linux-native browser-integrating non-cloud alternative yet :(

    One is open source, the other isn't. What is more important - security or convenience?

      Security without convenience is mostly useless IMHO.

Personally, I am a Last Pass user. It is well included in most browsers out there and you have access to it on your mobile if you subscribe to the premium offer (12 dollars per year).

  AFAIK LastPass is an online password manager, i.e., you do not only trust a software vendor like AgileBits for 1Password, but you trust your actual passwords to an online provider. Is that wise given that LastPass could get hacked or asked by authorities to provide your passwords – if there's not already an existing legal access channel?
  - moystard 13y ago
    As said elsewhere, passwords stored in LastPass are encrypted locally. They do not store your password so they officially don't have a way to decrypt your passwords. I agree that it's a matter of trust as your passwords are still stored on their servers.
