First, Bitwarden. And now Mullvad. Those were like the only two “good” things left that I use. Great products that are led by not great people. Sigh.

I'm out of the loop on Bitwarden. What happened there?

New CEO comes from private equity and it looks like he wants to run it as such.

Ah. Shit. So they'll drive me away all on their own then. Wonderful.

for Bitwarden, a much better replacement is Vaultwarden. it's very easy to run yourself, or you can find other servers elsewhere run by people. best part about it is that since every client acts as a full backup, if a server shuts down then you can just transfer your data elsewhere with no issues.

I know someone who runs their own server, which is what I use.

Vaultwarden needs its own client, and soon. BW is absolutely going to stop allowing non-official servers at some point.
