Alright does anyone have opinions on Nextcloud Passwords? There's apps for it and it would sync to my Nextcloud.

I hate this. Bitwarden has been a good app.

It's a packaging bug, the headline is false.

Bitwarden has been a good app.

And it still is. There's no reason to stop using Bitwarden, and I will continue my plans to switch to Vaultwarden.

As @[email protected] said, it's a packaging bug, not an actual change in license. If you read the article, it says as much in the update.

By trying to make things simple, this ends up making it more complicated and convoluted than anything

If you want to roll your own with keepass that's fine, but most people will want a more comprehensive solution.

Sooo, where's ProtonPass at? They're open source and non-profit, right?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago (2 children)

The server is not open source and I wouldn't trust a business that is not just working on password managers.

and I wouldn't trust a business that is not just working on password managers.

Because..? They're a privacy tool oriented company, no?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Because they aren't focused on just one single service. Bitwarden is a single business only focusing on their password manager, whereas proton has a suite of tools. Passwords need to be stored absolutely in a robust and safe way. I don't trust proton with anything at all, and the proton pass is no exception. The client might be open source, but the backend is not. It's also not as mature as bitwarden.

Its worth noting I don't think they're actually a company anymore, I think they're now a non-profit (I may be mistaken, but that's my present understanding)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (4 children)

I use to always recommend bitwarden to people. Now i feel like an idiot for doing so with them switching up. Ill be making the effort to move to keepassxc soon and host it myself.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago (2 children)

They literally posted that this is a packaging bug and will be resolved.

I'm going to keep using Bitwarden because KeepassXC sucks, but not as a paying user. Once this package inclusion is removed, if it is removed, i'll pay again.
