Concerns Raised Over Bitwarden Moving Further Away From Open-Source

Serious question: what's wrong with KeepassXC?

I dont want to self host but if I do have to I will, nothing gets remotely close to the ease of bitwarden

RIP Bitwarden, i moved from it from Lastpass when they kept hiking its fees.

where to next guys?

KeePassXC on desktop and in the browser; other KeePass clients on mobile. There are multiple good ones, like KeePassium (iOS) and KeePass (Ubuntu Touch).

Proton Pass ✌️

Proton also abuses open source, isn't their backend closed source? I can only find the client source code.

I see Vaultwarden and some other clients in my future.

Serious question: what's wrong with KeepassXC?

Nothing, it just doesn't have the same set of features. Specially the main one: bitwarden is designed with a server in mind while keepass/keepassXC isn't

lack of cloud based password storage

That’s always the same story…
Start with good intentions and open mind,
then success happens precisely thanks to these, then money brings greed and fear of outside, then the things turns to shit.
Why can’t people stick with the key of their success?

You should at least try vaultwarden and then speak about it
I have tried both and vaultwarden is much better.

I just dont want to rent a server and my home internet is too flaky to host a service lol I will if needed to, but ideally I would just not.

Is this the same proton that hand out users data to the government? LOL

it's important to note that proton still has to obey laws. They do have strong protections, and have been honest about what they can and cannot be compelled to disclose. It's up to the user to take certain steps to make sure their data is hidden still. In all cases, it has been an issue of opsec and proton had been legally compelled to turn over data.
