What is the point of vaultwarden? Is it safer or less safe than using the bitwarden app/website? (alien.top)

Not sure I understand why you'd want to self host a password manager. Bitwarden has never been breached AFAIK. How is it better or safer to keep if self hosted?

Can be safer. Can be worse.

A poorly configured self hosted vaultwarden can be a major security issue.

A properly configured one is arguable safer than hosting with a 3rd party. Lastpass taught me that one.

If you configure it to where it's not exposed to the web, and only accessed through a VPN, like Tailscale. It can be quite robust.
