      bitwarden became proprietary a while ago

      I’m interested in hearing more about this. I recall there being a mixup in packaging and people asked a bunch of questions about licensing. But as far as I can tell the client and server code is still available as open source (under various licenses) and the repos are frequently updated.

      This is an honest question, I promise. I haven’t found anything that points to regular users being pushed to anything proprietary, and no new discussions since late 2024.

        … Physically back up your passwords too.

        Every password in your manager should be written in a little book somewhere in case of exactly that. Keep it with your birth certificate and other important documents.

        Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.
