I’m not really sure what happens if Proton bans your account for any reason but Proton Pass does have offline access. I assume if you turn off internet access, you can still get all your passwords.
Bitwarden has a really nice CLI that lets you backup your vault easily. I personally run bw export --format json --raw every few week so if for some reason I lose the “cloud” access, I can still migrate to self hosted or a different password manager. (Or you may choose to self-host to begin with)
The danger with self hosting is that police can always steal everything from you.
Felt weird hearing story of my ex that the german customs office just stole their Laptop and Phone. She couldn’t show me pictures and she hadn’t any backups or smth.
I am afraid this could happen to me too when they suspect something but are wrong at the end. At the entire time I will not have access to my drives of my server and maybe they accidentally break them. Not sure if they will believe me that its a raid 1, I can imagine them stealing everything without questioning.
For me keepassxc is a dramatic improvement over a centralised service.
I use both and am afraid that I will lose the passwords in Proton Pass as Its a service they can restrict me of.
I should startto copy some accountd that I dont have yet in keepass but keepass is still the master holder

If you follow the 3-2-1 backup strategy then this should not be a problem. Backups are an essential part of self-hosting.
