    Who exactly says you have to store it on another computer?

      Sorry I assume you are using a program that is not air gapped. Most of the time I associate the “cloud” to these managers.

        KeePass can be used locally. Often you’d want to store your vault in something like dropbox simply so you can use it on multiple devices for ease of use, but you don’t have to. And arguably you don’t need to worry if someone gets your vault. The encryption cannot feasibly be broken in any way but brute force. If your password is hard enough to guess, you’re fine even if an attack has your vault.

        As well, if your complaint is just letting third parties handle your data, Bitwarden is open source and can be self hosted.

          If its local then its not much more then an encrypted notepad, and I am down for that.
