If bitwarden is too complicated, keepass is out of the picture

How could you be simpler than keepass? Like, there's more advanced features, but for basic function, its just a password to access a list of passwords.

...its just a password to access a list of passwords.

Unless you never thought of, implemented, regularly did and regularly tested your backup of the database. Or... try to use it on more than one device - maybe even at the same time.

That's the main problem with KeePass. It's nice to have it offline, fully under your control and out of the cloud, but that comes with some responsibilities on your end. And now think of how the average user solves this. If you're tech savvy enough, KeePass is great!

Setup syncthing between the computers. If the person is not tech savy enough, they can always force the tech savy enough person they know to set it up for them. The are no problems with the tech, people just dont know it exists. Even if you don't or can't use syncthing (iOS users), you can just be stupid and put it in the cloud.
