I’ve been a faithful BitWarden subscriber since almost he beginning, but read up on them. They’ve Been making some moves lately that point in a bad direction. Proceed with caution.
Bitwarden’s the only “cloud-based” password manager I trust, since their entire stack is open-source.
For self-hosting, they recently released Bitwarden Lite, which is a lot simpler to host than their regular server. One Docker image and you can use SQLite for the database. Different design decisions compared to the regular server which is designed to scale up to handle businesses with tens or hundreds of thousands of employees.
There’s also Vaultwarden, which is an unofficial third-party server implementation.
Bitwarden seems to be pretty clearly on the path of enshittification. They’ve been going towards closing off the self-hosted versions for a while, and moving their app out of repos that check licenses, with the likely aim of taking it closed source.
The usualy will surely follow.Not sure how soon, but I definitely wouldn’t newly go to them at this point.
and ProtonPass. they’re both great.
Proton’s server is closed source so I don’t trust it as much as Bitwarden.
Dumped them when they completely mismanaged their first breach.
😂 anyone still there deserves what they got
Edit: oh, okay it’s not as bad as last time…

Use your brain. Literally. It’s the only safe way to store passwords.
Not very safe passwords.
