I use Firefox built-in password manager with master password. Works on Windows, Linux, Android. I haven't tested but should also work on IOS and OSX. It's opensource, does not store unencrypted passwords in the cloud, uses OS popup for master password prompt, and prompts only during browser startup, so it'd be very suspicious if opening a page would show the prompt. Also knowing master password is not enough to compromise it remotely - you'd also need Firefox account password which shoud be different and very complicated.

As 'Stewart Padveen, Internet entrepreneur and founder of AdPickles Inc., says, "Obsolescence is a relative — not absolute — term in the world of technology.". 'In the early 1990s, it was all the rage to become a Certified NetWare Engineer, especially with Novell Inc. enjoying 90% market share for PC-based servers. '"It seems like it happened overnight. Everyone had Novell, and within a two-year period, they'd all switched to NT," says David Hayes, president of HireMinds LLC in Cambridge, Mass.'"
