One downside is that i'll have no more passkeys. The vault syncing, i can do via SyncThing.

as long as you keep good backups, and maybe sync KeePass to cloud storage.

Yes, that's the caveat. You're paying for a managed solution so you don't have to worry about that.

It's not difficult or time-consuming. No need to worry or pay.

Disagree

All your info is stored in one file, which is automatically encrypted and can be opened by any KeePass-compatible program. If you want to access it on another device, you can use whatever sync/file transfer software you normally use to sync/send it to whatever storage provider you use, or directly to your other device(s). No need to do anything outside your usual routine.
