Security: KeePassX vs KeePassXC

[kflc]

First of all, thanks for the great guide on security.
The guide recommends KeePassX, but after some research I found out that its development has been slow for a few years now and the community has forked it to KeePassXC.
Knowing barely anything about password managers, I'd like to ask you: Which of the two would you consider the best option?
Additionally, the guide could mention KeePassXC (either as recommended or not recommended).
Cheers!

Been looking at both, KeePassXC seems to improve on the command line access but they both support much of the same features of the password databases except for the addition of an encryption algorithm in the KDBX database file by KeePassXC. Although latest KDBX seems to present a bug that could corrupt the database, so overall the original database format (KDB version 1) seems to be the best as of now even if newer features are not present.
Overall as long as it is not KeePass, which is based on the problematic .NET framework, either KeePassX and KeePassXC should be fine, even if the development is slower and less features are present in KeePassX in comparison with KeePassXC it can be considered more minimal.

Edit: In short, use KeePassXC if you want the newer features, KeePassX if you want to be a tad more minimal, or go all the way to kpcli for minimalism.

Got it. It seems kpcli and KeePassX are enough for me then. Thanks again!
