I like Bitwarden and open source, but attachments are a paid feature for them, so you'd be essentially working to add value to their paid features for free. That feels unfair to me.
- Aeolun 4y agoI think you’d be working to add quality to your backups for free. Sure, they’d also give it to other customers, but what matters is that you have it (and henceforth do not have to maintain your own fork).
- hotpotamus 4y agoThat's a more generous way of looking at it and certainly a fair point.

- SahAssar 4y agoI think the point is more that you'd be giving away work for free that is only usable by people paying someone other than you.
- _flux 4y agoWell the clients are still quite nice and you can use them with VaultWarden for free and get attachments.
- Youden 4y agoIsn't this argument basically true of any major open-source project? There's always a commercial user somewhere who benefits from your work without paying for it. A contribution to Bitwarden would benefit the paid hosting, sure, but it'd also benefit folks who are self-hosting.
