    The difference in complexity in setting up bitwarden and using your own self-hosted instance of bitwarden is fucking massive. For 99.9% of people rhem using bitwarden would greatly improve their password security and bitwarden has proven to be better than the competition.

    FYI Vaultwarden is simpler and should be easier to self-host

    Most people can not host it. Of those who can, many shouldn't host it, for their own safety.

    If you really think most people are up to it, you live in a bubble.

    I got my non-gamer boomer neighbor on Bitwarden. It's not that complicated.

    She's never had a job or hobby where she had to use a computer and she picked up "oh, I store all my passwords in this magic browser thing? That's way more convenient that remembering which kid's birthday was the password to my email." I also taught her how to copy and paste using the keyboard (and that you can remind yourself of what the shortcut is by right-clicking and looking at the shortcut hint in the menu).
