Multiple devices is a slight pain, you have to keep everything synchronized yourself, and conflicts mean you can lose passwords in your sync service debris (if you even have that feature).

I switched to Bitwarden in order to deal with this.

Did you try diffing the conflicting databases through a tool like keepass-diff before switching?

I'm the author of keepass-diff and built it for my own needs. Looking through the comments here about why people switched from Keepass to Bitwarden, it feels like the compare feature is something that should be integrated to UI clients as many people seem to face this problem. I always assumed it was more because of permissions and better ability to work with it as a team...

I did not, I wasn't aware of keepass-diff and certainly it would've been able to solve the problem. But to tell you the truth I don't think I would use it. This is something that I really don't want to have to worry about regardless of what device I'm using.

Thanks for the insight! I guess it's a hard problem to solve with these conflicts. I'm wondering how it could be automatically resolved if a user has the same thing open multiple times with changes to the same password...
