keepass > bitwarden
vpn providers should be reviewed regularly
email is inherintly insecure/non-private, self hosted is best
why do you prefer keepass to bitwarden? has it better privacy or is it just a personal preference because you like the UI more for example?
keepass is a different paradigm. it uses a locally encrypted file. many frontends for it (use keepassxc and keepassdx). dont have to rely on some 3rd party, even if they say they have e2ee. theres no better privacy (and security) for an app than not using it with the internet. im not too concerned about ui for pw manager personally, the less time i spend w it unlocked the better. only (slight) problem for me: multi device usage (i just copy the file onto my phone occasionally). general rule of thumb: if it can be selfhosted, it is best to.
i think bitwarden is the best one of its type, it comes down to your needs and threat model
I use syncthing to sync my KeePass file, and I highly recommend it. Very easy to set up
