I'm all in for paying for services that handle your personal data. If you don't pay them, how do they make money? So I'm okay with this. Something to consider, however, is the alternatives. Bitwarden seems cheaper[0]. Anyone has a preference for either? [0] https://bitwarden.com/pricing/ https://bitwarden.com/pricing/

Bitwarden is awesome and open source. I host it myself. Used Lastpass before.

Don't use a service, use (Free) software and handle your personal data yourself. https://keepassxc.org/ https://keepassxc.org/ is one option to do so.

  Bitwarden is a F/OSS software that you can install its server on premise [1]. I hope it to be lighter, though (its minimal memory requirement is quite large). [1] https://bitwarden.com/help/article/install-on-premise/ https://bitwarden.com/help/article/install-on-premise/

    You could try bitwarden_rs [1], much lighter on resources. [1] https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs

  What are the options for using KeePass on Android? Is there a way to get auto-filling in apps? How about in Firefox for Android?

    either Keepass2Android or KeepassDX. They both have virtual keyboard support[1] and at least one of them has android auto-fill support. [1] to use it you have to open/unlock the database, select the entry (although I think it's also possible to associate to android package ids so you don't have to do this), switch back to the app, change your keyboard to the keepass keyboard which will have buttons for entering user and password.

    I'm using Keepass2Android Offline; it supports the auto-fill service that was introduced in Android 8, so it shows up anywhere a password manager is supposed to show up and yes, works with Firefox for Android.

I use Bitwarden (not self-hosted) and I'm happy with it. On my mobile device (One Plus 3T) it's rather slow, but that might be due to the device age.

The only problem I had with BitWarden was you cannot add/update entries on mobile when you're offline. This might not be a big issue for many, but it was a deal-breaker for me. I'm now rocking a local KeepassXC (PC) + Keepass2Android + Syncthing setup that syncs when I'm on my home network.

When a service has a free part and a paid part, the free part is more like "try before you buy" than the data being money. This move to limit to a device type is shitty marketing trying to convert more people to buy. It will fail by angering existing free users and pushing them to alternatives, while also reducing new users signup. This is a sad post-acquisition state for a product, trying to make the most possible money out of it instead of focusing on real value.
