I’m going to move away from lastpass because the user experience is pretty fucking shit. I was going to look at 1pass as I use it a lot at work and so know it. However I have heard a lot of praise for BitWarden and VaultWarden on here and so probably going to try them out first.

My questions are to those of you who self-host, firstly: why?

And how do you mitigate the risk of your internet going down at home and blocking your access while away?

BitWarden’s paid tier is only $10 a year which I’m happy to pay to support a decent service, but im curious about the benefits of the above. I already run syncthing on a pi so adding a password manager wouldn’t need any additional hardware.

    Didnt feel passive aggresive to me.
    And regarding the question why people self host:
    More or less the usual reasons (e.g. learning, just4fun, experimenting)
    And I gave you the reasons why I decided against it.

    Do with both informations what you need to do. Keeping it in mind or disregard my opinion/choices as not directly answering your question
