KeePassXC is FOSS, free of cloud nonsense, works fine on desktop, and has integrations for most browsers. I have no idea about the iOS situation, but on Android KeePass2Android provides global autofill and works with a ton of storage providers (everything from Dropbox to bring-your-own-SFTP).

On iOS, there’s KyPass. It plays nicely with the Linux and Mac versions of Keepass, syncs with Dropbox, supports Touch ID, etc. There was a reasonable one-time purchase price, I believe.
I switched to the Keepass world a while back when 1Password started to try to nudge me into paying a monthly fee for software that I already paid for on multiple platforms. The Keepass variants aren’t as slick but who cares.

I actually _do_ care enough about "slickness" to be prepared to pay for it. I want to be able to keep my encrypted password db off other people's computers though - using 1PW's cloud service requiring Dropbox for multi device sync is not what I'm after...

I paid about 50$ or so for it with no complaints. I’m not willing to pay that plus a subscription fee for what is, at the end of the day, a small encrypted database.

Big fan of KeePass. On Mac KeePassXC is great, on Windows KeePass, but on iOS I use Strongbox [1] which is excellent. Auto fill works well, it's open source [2] and actively developed, I really don't trust none open source password managers
