KDE Plasma 6.0 Is Enabling Wayland by Default
Another regression is that KeePassX/C AutoType doesn't work with Wayland, so now instead of a simple CTRL+V in KeePassXC, I have to separately copy and paste the user and the pass.

Why is auto-fill impossible in some websites such us bank and government sites?
This is one area where I think Bitwarden could really benefit by copying features in KeePass. Such as autotype and magic keyboard. These features allow you to get around silly restrictions like this.

LPT: Don't bother to remember any passwords. Reseting it every time makes it more secure, and you won't be frustrated if you just expect to reset it every time.
They are available on mobile devices too -- and they're free and open source.

For the paranoid, there's always KeePass + cloud storage, which is also free. It's what I use. I tend to use KeePassXC, a cross-platform KeePass-compatible application that works on Linux, Mac, and Windows, and I use Dropbox free for my cloud storage, since it actually has a Linux client that works, no hassles, right out of the box. I use KeePassium on my iPhone, and there are plenty of Android KeePass-compatible apps out there, such as KeePassDX, which is open-source and, apparently, very nice. I USED to use KeePass2Android, which the community seems to still like, but I'd probably be using KeePassDX these days since it's fully open-source and available through F-Droid.
