In the latest episode of “they will always sell you out” - they sold you out! Who would’ve thought.

Hoping for a good alternative client to appear, the writing is on the wall. Vaultwarden can’t exist without “leeching” off of Bitwarden.

    No one is being “sold out” lol. Anyone using the free tier has had a great run with an amazing service without posting a cent. Can’t complain about that.

    I already pay for Bitwarden as it’s a great service that brings a lot of value. I’m happy to pay for it, and have zero anger at a company wanting to make money from their product.

    Others might disagree, but companies can’t exist without making money. It’s insane that there are somehow still people that don’t understand how business works.

    My work just started giving out 6 sponsored family licenses per employee which is awesome, so I’ll actually get to stop paying for it for a while.

      Buddy, I don’t know if you’ve been living under a rock but everything a venture capitalist touches is enshittifying. You think any of these companies you’re reading headlines about are suffering to keep their doors open? When google locks down android or X starts including ads in Grok they’re doing it to keep the lights on? You think if Bitwarden started cutting free services and charging more the average employee is going to get a proportional raise to the new profits?

      No. We’re not upset because we dont understand that a company needs to make money. We’re upset because we have basic pattern recognition skills and we understand the nature of late stage capitalism on wealth inequality (at least intuitively). This (likely) isn’t some smart business person coming in to balance the books, this is (likely) some rich asshole whose job is to kill the golden goose and sell it for parts before anyone catches on that you need it alive to produce eggs.
