@neil@mastodon.neilzone.co.uk Before I switched to BitWarden for my passwords I was storing them using kickpass.
kickpass gives you an encrypted file per thing/site, and there's no requirement to actually be storing a password in that part of the data. The metadata just opens up in $EDITOR.
I've not looked at it closely, but I assumed it was doing a better job of handling things like "don't leave a plain-text temporary file lying around if you crash" than my previous home-brew script based on GPG.
The one downside is that the file(s) will need to be in `~/.kickpass`
