Thoughts on Bitwarden? (lemmy.ml)

I personally use passwordstore.org with a git repo on a personal VPS. But I wanted to set up a password manager for my boomer parents and looks like Bitwarden is one of the better options out there.

The problem is that the free tier sounds a bit too good to be true so I am worried that it might just disappear or discontinue one day. Any idea if this fear is unfounded or not?

If you have been using Bitwarden please share your experience with it. Would like to hear.

I would go for https://keepass.info/ . IMHO the best open-source password manager out there. Because of its prorietary parts I wouldn't trust Bitwarden.

not easy to use.

There's AuthPass that is using the KeePass database format and IMO more user-friendly and approachable to a newcomer.

tbh I've yet to see a KeePass-based password manager that's not clunky-feeling. Strongbox is probably the best one for that but that's for the Apple ecosystem.

what's the challenge? there is lots of ways to use keepass that aren't immediately obvious.
