I feel like a shill at this point but just use Bitwarden. open source, cloud sync by default, alternative self-hostable backend if you want to, no device limit, doesn't cost anything which is just about the only thing that concerns me because the free plan seems too good honestly.

Bitwarden is great, and their commercial offering of $10.00 per year is so cheap as to be effectively free. My only issue is the fact their servers could be wiped and I no longer have access to my data, but that's where KeepassXC comes in. I keep one Bitwarden and one Keepass DB as a fallback, and keep them updated with the same login entries. I store my KeepassXC database in various cloud storage services, as-well as keeping various local copies.

So is the Bitwarden database not also stored/always up to date local (like how IMAP works for e-mail, if the server goes offline you still have all your emails locally) ?
