For personal use, why bother with this instead of something like Strongbox syncing to a cloud drive?

Well, first off, Strongbox is Apple specific, and I don't use Apple devices. Second, it does not appear to be 100% open source, though it is based on some open source code from KeePass.

So the real question for me would be why not use KeePass, which is what I used before switching to Bitwarden. I switched because at the time, Bitwarden had better clients, better integration with Android and Firefox. That situation has changed some since, but I haven't had any good reason to switch back.

Aye, this has worked very well for me. Keepass file stored on google drive. Can open on PC, iOS, Android, etc.

Do you backup your Google Drive?
