  20$/year is still cheap compared to other password managers, but yeah, the lack of transparency is worrying.

    Keepass is free?

      Thing is, a large percentage of internet-connected users might have two or more devices. The simplicity offered by a cloud (be it hosted or selfhosted) password manager is a huge benefit.

      And unless you’re already running a syncthing-like service for something else, setting it up just for a password manager when other services provide it out of the box, is not worth the hassle usually.

      IMO Keepass and Bitwarden aren’t exactly the same, as the latter has cross-device sync built-in.

      I can’t think of a reason to choose Keepass over Vaultwarden.

    They put a couple things behind the paywall: the ability to securely share files instead of just text, and to host TOTP authentication. As it is I prefer using other services for sharing And while TOTP auth is nice I use Aegis

  While the increase is not a huge deal because the total is still cheaper than alternatives, the thing that irks me is how they did indeed just announced it via a blog post titled “Bitwarden launches enhanced premium plan: Complete online security for everyone”. This reads like there’s going to be free, premium and premium+ at best, and “we are just adding more stuff to the premium” at worst, not implying a price bump, at least to me. I did not get my renewal email yet, so can’t confirm whether or not they don’t even mention the annual price, but rather just the monthly one. Another thing that kind of bothers me is that they list “Vault health alerts” as a new thing, while it’s always been there. While “Phishing blocker” just seems like a feature outside of the scope of a password manager.

  All in all, double the price in exchange for x5 more storage and x2 more hardware keys is fine to me, but I hope they improve their communication and actually properly inform users of upcoming pricing changes.

    I had my renewal email come through today. Here is what is says: Your Bitwarden Premium subscription renews in 15 days. The price is updating to $1.65/month, billed annually. As an existing Bitwarden customer, you will receive a one-time 25% loyalty discount for this year’s renewal. This renewal will now be billed annually at $14.85 + tax.

  TBH, $10/year is a small price not to have to get my wife to change again after lastpass. She is not equipped to deal with enshittification.

    If you do any sort of self-hosting, take a look at Vaultwarden. All the premium functions for free.

    Before my entire network setup changed recently for unrelated reasons… I had Vaultwarden running on my home server (TrueNAS) and a free Cloudflare account with a tunnel to my home server and a $5/year domain. Worked for my parents easily and no longer had to worry about the big infrastructure being targeted.

      Possibly but the main thing we find useful is the OTP generation. This means we can both use shared accounts without having to ask the other for a code. That’s probably an edge case, and not enough sites support it, but it’s really nice for the ones that do.

      I doubt that is available in self-hosting but I’d be happy to be wrong about that. I have a raspberry pi serving up a couple of local things and I could register a domain if I had a use case for connectivity outside the house.

  You know why Git was written in the first place, right? Some people think ahead.
