There are a few reasons why I don't use stuff like 1Password or LastPass: - Not open source (or in part, e.g. the server side is closed); - Uploads stuff to the cloud (I want to self-host); - Not available on mobile; Bitwarden sounded quite good at first: mobile, sync and open source. I can inspect the code and run the web part (the vault, they call it) myself. Then I had a look at the web part: https://github.com/bitwarden/web/blob/master/src/Web/Program... It's C#. I'm not going to run a Windows Server just for this.
