I actually use Lastpass for all my password storage as I can access it 
from Windows, Linux, Android and iOS easily enough. The data is 
encrypted using your master password before being uploaded so each 
device utilizing it needs to decrypt it when retrieving the data. I also 
use it to generate random passwords for most of my website passwords. I 
couple it with using Google Authenticator for 2FA but I also have a 
Yubikey that I could enable just as well for the same purpose, I just 
usually have my phone with me more than my Yubikey.
