Totally agree. I've been a multi-year paying customer of bitwarden for the family, always happy with their service, especially when compared with the 1pass I use at work. But that CEO avatar picture alone gives me enough bad vibes, let alone his credentials, the acronym change, so yea I too reckon I've been putting off the switch long enough now.
I came from keepass, can't go back there, even if I now have syncthing set up everywhere. Also, how would that work for the family, you force everyone to set up their own file and hope they manage it well? Highly doubtful.
I saw aliasvault pop up too, this last week. Haven't looked into it yet, and although a great contender, it's probably too young to seriously consider.
These are the alternatives according to selfh.st/apps :
Anyone here had some bad experiences with any of these?
vaultwarden has an uncertain future with the new bitwarden management -- we would need bitwarden apps that use vaultwarden apis rather than bitwarden. I suppose if bitwarden breaks api compatibility that might happen.
KeepPassXC is what I was using before -- it's like keepass. It has browser integration, but syncing is problematic, and it doesn't have biometric unlock.
I should think so too. I'd expect a big race to start, like with the kbin/lemmy apps after the reddit api fiasco.
I'm using boost for lemmy btw. It was a great reddit client back in the day, and when the api change was announced they switched to lemmy pretty quickly.
