I just sent them a message along these lines.

I’m happy to pay for good services, but M&A means cost-cutting measures to make the company look good for acquisition and that makes me uncomfortable with letting them store secure data for me.

Switching is going to be a pain.

It is really easy to self-host, and do so securely...

I’m not buying hosting from a password manager, I’m buying security. I don’t have complete confidence that I can secure a self-hosted password manager and it’s not an area where I want to take risks.

It's very simple, just don't make it accessible outside your home network. Clients sync when the server is accessible and use last synced data otherwise.

The effort required to set this up far outweighs the price to pay someone to do it for me.

I pay a cleaner, I have a dishwasher, I pay someone to do my taxes, I pay for companies to host software.

Then again, I never order food and almost never get takeaway, as cooking is nice and I value my food enough to care what goes in it. Cheaper too, easily offsetting what I pay for my password manager.
