The UX is actually kind of bad. I think it is electron-based, the menus are far from a work of art, and the folder management seems very primitive.

But that said, it is by far the best product despite this.

What do you mean Electron based? There's no such thing as an "Electron-based UX".

Bitwarden clients have the same UX across OSes and platforms ( browser extension, mobile app, thick client". The thick clients are indeed Electron based.

I think what was being said is the fact an app uses Electron rather than being native can diminish UX. I think it was clear enough from the post, at least from context.

I'm actually a bit confused by 'the same UX across OSes'. What does this mean? The mobile UI is completely different to the desktop apps and web app.

I was about to complain about how their mobile UI made me click a tiny button in the top right instead of using the massive button that did something entirely useless, went to check what the button actually was and found out they've now fixed it.

Props to the Bitwarden guys for fixing the only thing that really bothered me with the UI.
