I do not understand the need to have your passwords stored somewhere in the cloud. I'd better sync them by a wire if I had several devices, not like passwords change every day. And there are cheaper VPNs out there with better reputation.

It’s not like they are plaintext, and increased availability/ redundancy would be one potential reason for deciding to have a cloud synced password manager database.

There are other solutions that you can self host or create yourself, and if that works better for you and your use case, I encourage it.
