If your concern is third-party reliability but you'd still like a password manager, I'd say your best bet would be pass + git. pass uses gpg to encrypt each password separately in a file structure, and works very well with any sort of git repository making it accessible across devices. Depending on how you set it up it can be 100% in your control with minimal configuration (in my case though I've been lazy and just hooked it up to a private GitHub repository).

1+ for pass. It does one thing and does it well. Zero bloat. I use a simple emacs helm plugin to quickly copy the password to clipboard. Very happy with this setup.

How do you sync to mobile browsers with pass + git?

I don't, sorry. My previous password manager, while it did have a mobile app, was painful to use so I don't miss that too much. For my most important stuff I use rememberable passwords.
