keepassXC forked to support running on OS's different from Windows.
No longer any need to fake Windows to run KeePass if living on a different OS.
No longer a need to download an unauthorized build for a different OS.
I'll bet there is some OS out there that none run on.
The tech geek behind this is that XC runs C++, while plain KeePass runs on C#.
KeePass had a security audit a few years ago and did well. XC hasn't had an audit. Not sure if it matters. XC is a project on github which makes it really easy to browse the code and look at community comments. Plain KeePass is opensource, but you have to download it and expand it to see it. That just makes it a little less visible and is rather old school when it comes to open source.
