For me, it is KeePass, hands down.

It keeps things 100% in your control: no cloud or similar service. For the tech-savvy, it's probably the most secure option that still has some good ease of use features.

It is not one I would set up my parents on - it's a little too "DIY" for that, but for someone who understands all the settings, it can be a very secure choice.

If you want cloud, it is doable through Dropbox, OneDrive, etc., but the actual KeePass file remains fully encrypted.

I'll second keepass (specifically, keepassxc). It is indeed a little more work to set up, especially if you want proper synchronization; but for something as critical to my life as a password manager, I don't trust any third party to act responsibly and in my best interest. It also has some neat features for "power users", like SSH agent integration, so all my private keys can be stored encrypted with the password database. Currently have keepassxc set up to sync through nextcloud and require both a master password and static key (usb stick) to unlock.

Same here. I’ve been using KeePass personally for years now, and it’s the only password manager my company still allows (LastPass USED to be allowed). I use it with OneDrive to sync with my iPhone.

Strongbox on iOS/OSX is a KeePass implementation that’s pretty user friendly once you have it set up. Not free. But I love it on my iPhone and then use regular KeePass on my Windows PC with Google Drive. Probably even more streamlined on Mac.
