Exactly! Self hosted FTW. Chances of a data breach.... Typically pretty minor if you are smart.

Chances of losing the data is higher with selfhosting too. Unless you’re doing some sort of multizone replication, or course.

I would rather lose my passwords than have my password database be accessed by someone else. Most websites have a "forgot password" function, and for passwords that don't have that (e.g. to decrypt my hard drive or log into my computer) I've memorised the passphrase and always type it manually anyway. And for passwords where neither applies, it's probably not a huge loss anyway if I've not prepared for the possibility of losing my password db for that particular password.
