From the KeepassXC FAQ
Q - Why is there no cloud synchronization feature built into KeePassXC?
A - Cloud synchronization with Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, ownCloud, Nextcloud etc. can be easily accomplished by simply storing your KeePassXC database inside your shared cloud folder and letting your desktop synchronization client do the rest. We prefer this approach, because it is simple, not tied to a specific cloud provider and keeps the complexity of our code low.
there are a number of other options to do this with nextcloud.
Personally I went with bitwarden, still opensource and the option of using their service as well as hosting your own. and they have a 100% free option and then you can unlock other features (the ones that made me choose this route)
