KeePassXC 2.6.1

Any reason to switch over from KeePass to KeePassXC? I'm only using Windows so the cross platform argument doesn't hit me actually.

The KeePassXC developers are quite conscious about memory security and implement that in XC in a way that's not really possible with a .NET application like KeePass: https://keepassxc.org/blog/2019-02-21-memory-security/

KeePassXC supports TOTP. This is the main reason why I switched.

Arguments sound good but I didn't seem to find any biometric authentication for KeePassXC. In KeePass I could use some plug-ins to connect Windows Hello with KeePass so I could unlock the DB with my fingerprint or via looking into the camera.

Maybe I simply didn't search good enough, is there any possibility to have such functionality in KeePassXC?

There are some nice quality of life features; the "auto-save" being the one I use the most. So my changes don't get lost, and they get synced (for me via Syncthing) virtually immediately.

I find the browser integration extension(s) more robust/stable as well, but that could be environmental.

Not really. I use KeePass on Windows and KeePassXC on macOS for the same password db that I have cloud synced.
