I'm a LastPass user contemplating a switch. Your article doesn't say why I should switch. You mention "more control", and that's my thinking as well, but it just appears... not worth it to switch for something so nebulous? Perhaps I'm too lazy?
My own reason was mostly, that do to the dance with mobile; non-free/free/non-free, I thought it was about time to look into self hosting. The post is not really meant to convince you, just that it's definitely doable, with a bit of effort.
