I have been paying for Bitwarden (BW) premium since 2019 and earlier this year decided to move away from BW due to the password filling becoming somewhat hit-and-miss (even on a fresh install), along with taking its time to do so.
Had previously used Enpass in the past and was pleased to see how much it had improved since then. Also allows me several choices when it comes to where I store my vaults. And fills passwords quickly and efficiently in comparison to BW.
So I've migrated fully to Enpass - clients everywhere, browser plugins available, and it just works.
With this news, it now looks as though my migration was somewhat prescient.
I also use KeypassXC as a backup on USB should it ever be needed.
I found it super ironic how they blathered on about all of the recycling going on in their products, then blatently show all those items being destroyed when they could clearly be recycled.
I do think that the 'rendered' idea was the best - almost thinking differently, or something...:S
OP is simply referring to the Gillette Model [1] of business practice. I've been spotting, and avoiding it like the plague, for years.
Just wished that more people saw, understood, and voted with their wallets - the world would be a less costly place (both to ourselves, and the planet).
>before people start turning to WINE and a saner Linux distro, just to run their Windows applications
I jumped to Linux when Windows 11 was announced. I tried it (W11) in a VM and it convinced me that things are only going to get worse.
Must say that I couldn't be happier for the move. I still get to run the vast majority of software via WINE (Affinity products need to up their game though) to boot. Games are much better supported nowadays as well, so it's all good, and no Windows 11.
This isn't a good - particularly as passkeys are effectively just certs - migrators should be aware of those caveats.
