On: Bitwarden: Free, open-source password manager

[autophagian]

For this I self-host vaultwarden (https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden), an implementation of the bitwarden server, on my raspberry pi at home (and back up the DB frequently). It works well enough for me, and doesn't have my stuff stored in a single company's cloud.

So what if the disk crashes? Do you keep backups? In the cloud?

Always have backups... but in the bitwarden/vaultwarden case (just like with git), every client has a full copy which can be syched back to a new server, so even if you lose a server, you still have all passwords on (every) client. In my case, that is multiple browser instances on multiple laptops and the bitwarden client on android.

There are different places to keep backups

My relevant data is synced regularly to my nas (running a raid-1) and I weekly back the whole thing up to an offsite disk at my parents house.

Can someone who really really want it, get to it? Sure, how big of a target am I against a cloud provider?
