Someone mentioned Vaultwarden and I didn't know it, a Rust implementation to run on our own server with less resources compared to the official implementation.
But the other one also mentioned, KeepassXC, I confirm is really good. Just you would have to find your way to sync for usage across multiple devices. Maybe Proton Drive could be enough for that.
On Linux at least, I think the way KeepassXC interacts with the browser is better than Bitwarden. In particular, I like the small icon displayed in forms to auto-complete passwords instead of doing it automatically.

Sad to see Bitwarden go woke like this. Why can't they just focus on quality software instead of all these lame ass gender politics. ffs.

Steve Jobs has an interesting explanation in this "lost" interview about this kind of phenomenon. https://youtu.be/P4VBqTViEx4
Basically it's what happens to very successful companies in their field. Marketing and human resources end up running the company, not the "product" people

As if I was going to switch from Bitwarden, by far the best password manager I ever used, over some stupid shit like this.

Good luck I guess. I think of you're putting your pronoun as “Assigned By God” then there is a legitimate case that you are abusing a system and potentially signalling you will harass employees who intend to use the system to legitimately identify themselves in a way they feel comfortable.
This guy is trolling with his "religious beliefs" because he has some fuss against identity politics. I think I could find a better use of my time. Just use He/Him and call it a day or leave it blank. That stuff is never required to be filled out. Not a big deal.

Did you read the situation? He was leaving his pronouns blank, but the company was requiring him to add pronouns. Only then did he decide to troll.
Do you support companies compelling speech about your gender identity?

An unpleasant incident, but it has nothing to do with the security of the software itself. So I don't think you need to switch to something else right away.

I mean, as long as their service works and they aren't doing anything outrageous then why switch? If you only buy from organizations without anyone in management who has wack moral agendas then you won't have anywhere to go

Honestly, security-related products require trust in the product. If the company would go after their own employee's religious beliefs, how can I trust that the company won't go after mine?

That’s the type of attitude that allows these types of crazy policies to proliferate, though.
There are probably numerous employees of Bitwarden who dislike the HR policy but keep quiet because they want to keep their job and they don’t like discord.
Likewise there are plenty of customers who would view moving to another service as a monumental pain.
But when customers respond by handing together and voting loudly with their wallets, companies listen because it becomes an existential threat. Only those few with massive profits (like Google) can afford to ignore it.
You could even view it as doing an otherwise good company a favor - coordinated action in this manner which provides a short, sharp shock probably won’t kill them, but it often gives the right-thinking executives a mandate to change their practices.

I wonder if it will be a never ending story. Recently I found a page on Github (this one: https://github.com/nextcloud/providers#providers) where the companies using Nextcloud are listed in a table with a is green or not column. It feels to me like publicly trying to shame someone. Ethically, it's bad. Yet, it's good software. I ended up choosing my pi and samba but can understand people are not willing to change when they hear the first ethically bad news about the company behind a software.

The previous office rule was "no politics in the office." However, wokeism has brought far-left politics into office space.
It makes you wonder why the "no politics in the office" rule only applies to one side to shut down the discussion.

Where Bitwarden stores your passwords?
reply

It's client-side encrypted. So they are stored on their servers but only encrypted/decrypted on your client with a passphrase or key that doesn't ever get sent to the server.
