I have a degoogled phone with e/OS. I might try if they get a bit further into my use of their products and security. It sure would simplify methods.

    I have a similar setup with LineageOS. I use KeePassXC on PC (KeePassDX on Android). I can sync them via Nextcloud with peace in mind because the database is already encrypted. Syncthing-fork also works if you want completely local.

    I'm sure e/OS already has a password vault app in their list but if not KeePassXC is fully local out of the box and can be used with DX on Android.

    It's far secure than Firefox's built-in password manager.

    I've only been using e/OS for a few months. Once I gain more confidence in the OS I can certainly try. I'm still super paranoid. It's a lineage fork so there is update lag and possible security limitations in the OS itself. I'm just not sure yet.
