KeeWeb is a free opensource cross-platform alternative which is built on top of the popular KeePass technology. The difference with KeeWeb is that the UI looks like a modern implementation and we're impressed. It even includes the option of a dark mode by default and the developer has cleverly designed it so it looks the same across Mac.
