Bitwarden introduced a non-free dependency to their clients. The Bitwarden CTO tried to frame this as a bug but his explanation does not really make it any less concerning.

Perhaps it is time for alternative Bitwarden-compatible clients. An open source client that’s not based on Electron would be nice. Or move to something else entirely? Are there any other client-server open source password managers?

    The syncthing fork on f-droid is still an option. An issue has been opened on the github repo. Lets see what will happen with the fork

      I do have it installed through F-Droid. I thought I read that they weren’t really going to be focusing on it at all, so updates may just die out.

      Brings the little hope that my current situation won’t die!

      I don’t know enough about Java directly to contribute anything useful, sadly.
