Spent a few hours researching alternatives to #1Password, due to their cost increase. For me, it boils down to three scenarios.
a) Migrate to Bitwarden Cloud, save ~25 USD/year, but deal with migration hell
b) Migrate to Bitwarden self-hosted through Vaultwarden, accept community risk, and lie awake at night about server hardening
c) Stay with 1Password and live a worry-free life for the cost of a cup of coffee per month per user
I'll be going with C. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Followup ☝
I picked up this little project again. I honestly dislike that staying with a company I no longer align with out of ease was the best option. I bit the bullet and migrated to a self-hosted Vaultwarden. It's not as polished, but we'll get there.
@jorijn Dedication!!
I get 1password for free thanks to work and I'm genuinely curious about the state of Bitwarden apps, the last time I worked with them (YEARS ago) they lacked so much polish and auto-fill recognition that a physical password book was a genuine alternative
@IcyPalm Nice. I'm not sure I would've switched in that case.
The polish still isn't up to par with 1Password, but heck, they've been going at it for a decade longer. I'm sure Bitwarden will get there. It's very usable today.
