Do you have any ideas for a password safe that stores its data locally (an encrypted cloud drive is available for synchronizing), offers clients for Linux, Win and Android and has some amenities like filling in passwords in browsers?

My family needs to learn password safety, and I want to make it easy for them.

    Bitwarden, Bitwarden, Bitwarden. Use their free vendor-hosted service, and don’t fixate on self hosting or handling syncing of local files. They are highly transparent and well regarded, and this is the way to go if you want any hope of converting your family.

    If you don’t want to self host then I suggest Bitwarden as the only service I would recommend. If you want/are willing to self host Bitwarden. Just stay away from Lastpass.

      I can wholeheartedly support that statement. Been using a locally hosted bitwarden instance for a few years now, never head an issue and the Browser plugins work great.
      Also: actual desktop clients on all three platforms There are some discussions on HackerNews, about some VC which invested there and what the impact will be, but nothing actually popped up
