The safest alternative would be an open source password manager like KeePassXC or LessPass so that you can store and encrypt your passwords locally.

Use https://www.lesspass.com/#/ - I've found the approach very fresh. Of course, you have to be sure that master password is not leaked, but the same is true for any stateful password manager.
The real problem though is that it does not support hardware security tokens at the moment.
