In the latest episode of "they will always sell you out" - they sold you out! Who would've thought.

Hoping for a good alternative client to appear, the writing is on the wall. Vaultwarden can't exist without "leeching" off of Bitwarden.

It was too good to last. They enshitify everything.

MBAs ruin everything they touch.

I saw the term MBAssholes being used lately and really love it.

I canceled my BW sub and made the move to Proton when I saw this yesterday. I went through the enshitification of 1PW and won't hang around for the sequel.

What's going on with 1pass?

Hmm 🤔

Seems I will have to search for alts to Vaultwarden

VaultWarden is still fine and unaffiliated. Should they change the official Bit warden client to no longer work with that back end, there will be solutions.

I’ve been using proton pass for a while now while keeping my subscription going for Bitwarden. Ended that one today. Keeping an eye on Alias Vault to see how its future security audit pans out.

Keypass + SyncThing is my preferred method

If only KeepassXC wasn’t so butt ugly. Genuinely wish there was an alternative desktop client.
