I just set up my own Bitwarden server the other day using bitwarden_rs, a third-party implementation written in Rust.
It basically gives you all of the premium features for free, as opposed to the official server which requires a license.
I really wanted to run the official server, but they offered no option of a lifetime license (only a yearly license). For what it's worth, I would have been willing to pay a lot more for a license that never expired.
The whole reason I'm hosting the server myself in the first place is because I want _full_ control, so a subscription based license doesn't really fit well there.
Given that the project is licensed under the GPL, the license is effectively a donation anyway, so I hope they consider offering a lifetime license for those who want to self-host.
