    I’ve had some trouble with NextCloud as well. For me it just feels sluggish and bloated.

    Someone in another thread here said “NextCloud can do everything, but it doesn’t do anything particularly well” and that seems to mirror my experience with it for the most part.

    Of all the self-hosted containers I’ve set up NextCloud gave me the most trouble

    I have both set up right now.

    Things I like better about KeePass:

    KeePass doesn’t use the cloud, you don’t have to worry about the server getting compromised or going down because there’s nothing public-facing to hack. You always know where your password database is.

    KeePass lets you encrypt the database with not only the master password but also using the challenge-response from a YubiKey. That means every time you save your DB the encryption key is rotated and the DB is actually encrypted by two authentication factors.

    While both can add custom fields to an entry, I like that KeePass has the option to set fields as protected so their contents are hidden like the passwords.

    Things I like better about VaultWarden:

    Convenience.

    You can log in to your VaultWarden account on any device from the browser. KeePass requires some software to access the DB.

    The VaultWarden companion software is just better. It just does autofill better. KeePassXC/DX work well but just not as well as the BitWarden software.

    Other thoughts:

    Syncing passwords between devices with KeePass requires 3rd party software like SyncThing. If you break/lose/etc your VaultWarden server you could lose all your passwords with it.

    Always make/test backups.

    That’s quite an understatement.

    It has:

    • a new SOC
    • a new Southbridge
    • 5A USB-PD
    • a dedicated fan connector
    • a dedicated uart connector
    • 2 dual purpose DSI/CSU connectors (you can now use two displays or two cameras instead of one of each)
    • A PCIE FPC ribbon connector like the one used for DSI/CSI (you don’t need a hat, just a ribbon) also the pi4 did not have any accessible PCIE lanes, only the cm4 did. Also the pi5 is capable of PCIE Gen3
    • More bandwidth for the usb3 connectors
    • more bandwidth for Wi-Fi (reports are it gets about double the bandwidth despite using the same Wi-Fi chip)
    • Fully SMD board, no through-hole components.

    There’s plenty of stuff I would have liked to see that didn’t make it, but there definitely a lot more to it than an RTC and a power button. For $60 this is not a bad SBC at all.

    I would have liked to see normal HDMI connectors, 2.5G Ethernet with PoE included, and higher RAM options.

    More PCIe lanes would have been nice too but probably unlikely given the price point
