Now that they are venture funded, Bitwarden will try to restrict competition as much as they can. It's a familiar playbook. I wouldn't be surprised if Bitwarden has applied pressure behind the scenes on Vaultwarden to move in this direction, since the AGPLv3 license will make competition less likely (and VW shortsightedly even says as much). They're learning from Chrome/Chromium and others.


And it'll be easy too since vaultwarden implements the easy bits but the real value is the high-quality clients on every platform which aren't OSS.

Can't be worse than LastPass tho.
