Did Lastpass have a project like Vaultwarden behind it at the time? I'm hoping against hope that that will keep us with an open vault.

vaultwarden is great, but password managers are security critical software that need consistent maintenance and constant updates.

if bitwarden is acquired and the new owner decides an open source version of their product is not a business necessity, without someone actively supporting the salaries of engineers it’s unlikely to continue to be secure for much longer.

(and it’s easier to host as well, making for easier updates) https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/releases

		But since it's already open source and popular among tech savvy people, they have to weigh any attempts at increasing profits against the risk of losing customers to a fork.
