| Great find. This blog post - and specifically the background of the new management team - convinced me to start looking for a Bitwarden alternative. I’m watching the same “boil the frog” strategy unfold at Namecheap, and erode much of the brand trust they had built up over a decade, and it’s a shame. |

| Have you settled on a BitWarden alternative, or a short list you’re considering? |

| ▲ | birksherty an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | Proton Pass. I stopped using Bitwarden for a different reason, the mobile app was too slow when not connected to internet. I can't accept such slowness, the company will definitely give justifications for this. But I don't care, let me see my passwords or notes for a website immediately. Proton Pass is better in this regard. | | |
| ▲ | doodlesdev an hour ago | parent [-] | | Proton Pass cannot be self-hosted. | | |
| ▲ | sliken 43 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | As as self-hoster, I recommend vault warden. Supports 2fa, written in rust, works pretty well, is easy to backup, and you can use bitwarden's phone client. I'm curious why other self hosters think it's a bad idea. | |
| ▲ | missmewiththatl an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | As a self-hoster, I don't think password managers should be self-hosted. | | |
| ▲ | tappio 29 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | I don't see much reason not to self-host a properly built password manager like Vaultwarden or something similar? The clients keep a local encrypted copy of the vault, so the server only needs to be up for syncing. If it went down for a week, you probably wouldn't even notice unless you were saving new logins. And even if the server got hacked, everything on it is encrypted. Why do you think it should not be selfhosted? | |
| ▲ | Oxodao an hour ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | On the contrary. If there's one thing you should self-host is definetly password manager. | |
| ▲ | jazzyjackson 21 minutes ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Can’t relate. If you’re worried about you’re own reliability to keep it online, just keep paper backups | |
| ▲ | cortesoft an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | What? Why not? | | |
| ▲ | torzer321 16 minutes ago | parent [-] | | password managers should not involve hosting at all, use something file-local, keepass(xc) or alike |

| What’s wrong with self hosted vaultwarden ? I guess there isn’t a FLOSS extension client/app? |

| ▲ | alt227 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Wow, another site that now refuses to play ball unless you sign in. Guess I'll never be visiting Glass Door again then. | | |
| ▲ | to11mtm an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | GlassDoor has been gross about this for years. Not sure if still the case but normally you have to not only 'sign in' but also feed them information (e.x. salary at a position, write a review, etc.) in order to be able to view much of anything. They also do not give a shit about obvious 'juicing' (i.e. when it is obvious that upper management and/or HR is adding reviews where the 'con' reads like one of those softball warning phrases in a job description.) | | |
| ▲ | encom an hour ago | parent [-] | | This is the fate of every online review site. Every single one. Including IMDB as I realised yesterday while trying to find something to watch. The most egregious example I've found was that the Danish postal service had something like a 4,8/5,0 rating on Trustpilot. You'll be hard pressed to find a more inept, corrupt and universally hated company. So in an attempt to improve their public image, they decided to game the ratings, instead of actually delivering mail properly. |

| ▲ | chanux an hour ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I can kind if understand how forcing everyone to add on to the pile of content, from a business point of view. However they may have proved that they are indeed.. trash. Maybe even a few times. One such case was https://www.forrester.com/blogs/glassdoors-mishandling-of-cu... In my eyes they are in the same class of Facebook, uservoice, Pinterest, Quora etc. | |
