I have been using Bitwarden for some time now. It’s an open source password manager. There are apps for all major platforms and extensions to all major browsers. Checkout https://bitwarden.com/
Like others here, I'll probably be reevaluating my choice when it feels like it's time to upgrade. For me, some of the open source solutions are perfect as far as the underlying storage format and sync technology, but lack good browser extensions that already understand all the quirks of various sites. That's the kind of thing that a commercial product can tend to do a better job at.
Personally i wouldn't want to store my passwords with the same company that creates the (encryption)software.
And i definitely wouldn't self-host (why burden yourself with the management of data-backups/updates/etc. when iCloud is available for free...)
Their base software has an artificial limit in terms of number of users and number of 'collections', which goes contrary to the ethics of Free software.
I've not looked again recently but lastpass is the only thing I've found that fits those bills.
Seems to fit the bill a bit better. And might mean $12/year less though thats not a huge problem.
For people like me that already rent a VPS for their mail and website the marginal cost is $0 except for the time it would take for me to perform the installation and setup.
If the system is good and stable then the "cost" of the time that I would spend installing it on my server would be close to $0 when divided over the amount of time I use the software in the future.
No it doesn’t. Free software doesn’t have to be free: Even on the GPL page it’s written that it’s even ok to sell free software. It’s only unethical if you equate OSS to software communism, but that’s another topic.
So anything that encourages the user to either use the freemium, then either dive into the code or either pay, is ethically correct. After all, you can download their AGPL, knock the limit, and redistribute. At which point you’ll be a contributor and while you’re at it, you’ll probably make a few other improvements: it means effectively free for contributors, which is awesome. See, it articulates quite well gratis, contributors and funding.
It’s only designed to make enterprises pay, which is good because they can “donate” huge sums for good software, so it funds the open-source community quite well. And it retains the qualities of OSS: You know what you install, you’re not tied to the editor if he dies, and if they stop improving the software, a contributor can take over their code and become more famous. Win-win-win.
