Chromium's own password manager has the best usability and I have a lot more faith in it being secure than a third party one attempting to integrate into the browser via an extension. On Android, there's OS autofill support, but it's still trusting more than just the browser.

I genuinely just keep track of passwords with a text file on both my workstation and phone.
Storage Scopes feature on GrapheneOS is nice for this since you never need to grant apps access to storage and can have a bunch of sketchy apps in the same profile as sensitive data.
honestly thinking about doing that, i use Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge and i can't keep the passwords in both browsers synced.
how do you keep the text file up to date on your devices?

I keep my main FIDO2 security key on my keychain and leave it plugged into top workstation so when I go out I take it with me and have that.
Backup FIDO2 security key is my Trezor Model T which can also be restored via 2-of-3 seed phrase backups + set FIDO2 counter to Unix time.
