I too was a happy user of iCloud keychain for many years. Except one day, I made a new password on my Mac, but even after a few hours it hadn't sync'd to my iPhone.

I followed some instructions and toggled iCloud keychain sync on my iPhone (just turned it off and on) and it proceeded to erase about 250 of my 300 saved passwords. Wasn't able to get to my other devices fast enough to turn off the networking - they had all already been deleted from my Mac, iPad, etc as well.

Spent an entire weekend resetting passwords - never again. I am now a happy Bitwarden user. Even if it eats all my passwords one day, at least it's trivial to export them all to CSV.
