Fabio Manganiello#Bitwarden is no longer free software.
The new code introduces a dependency on @bitwarden/sdk-internal, whose license explicitly states that it can’t be used by any software other than Bitwarden.
That violates the freedom 0 of free software (I can do whatever I want with the source code as long as my output is also free and open).
This seems to be part of a long strategy from Bitwarden to gradually pull the rug under their “free and open” principles and turn the product into a closed product after gaining sufficient market share.
And it’s a reminder that open projects maintained by companies should never, ever, ever be trusted.
In my case I already moved to Vaultwarden a while ago. I had a hunch that Bitwarden was going in this direction, plus running 15 .NET containers on my box just to run a password manager seemed pure insanity to me.
I advise everyone to move away from Bitwarden too before it’s too late.
