Bitwarden introduced a non-free dependency to their clients. The Bitwarden CTO tried to frame this as a bug but his explanation does not really make it any less concerning.
Perhaps it is time for alternative Bitwarden-compatible clients. An open source client that’s not based on Electron would be nice. Or move to something else entirely? Are there any other client-server open source password managers?
The docs are not only often difficult for an inexperienced user, they commonly omit points of failure.
Various prerequisites, problematic settings, possibility of the user choosing the wrong menu etc. etc. should always be considered.
