Hi y’all! Sorry for asking so much on this sub! Y’all have been so helpful!
This time, I’m thinking of transitioning from 1Password to a self-hosted option.
Of course I know about Bitwarden, and I’m looking into it now, but are there any other recommendations y’all have? Have y’all heard of and used Passbolt? It seems nice, but it looks like it only does passwords and not other categories like 1Password does.
A few things of note: I’d like it to have different categories, a la 1Password. (Logins, SSN, ID, member card #, etc) Maybe multi-user so I can have an account for my wife. Password generator of course, and I’m not sure if y’all are familiar too much with 1password, but it allows you to customize the fields in each entry. So it starts with the basics (username, password, url), but it allows you to add sections and entries too! I could add a “security” and add my 2FA code on there, my backup codes, etc.
Honestly, that last one is a biggie, so I think I might be talking myself out of moving over now, but I’m sure that AgileBits or whatever the company is called will abandon, if it hasn’t already, 1Password 7 with local vaults, in favor of 1Password 8 that only uses 1password subscription accounts.
Sorry for the rant and wall of text. Thank y’all in advance.
Update on July 21, 2023
I decided to self-host Vaultwarden as it was designed to be a lightweight (on resources) version of Bitwarden. For Android, I’m using the “Keyguard” app to access my instance, and the official Bitwarden browser extension on my wife’s MacBook. 1password fucked me over, and I had to manually copy every password 1 by 1, luckily I only had ~500 entries.
I’m still doing some research into the best app for android (the official Bitwarden is ugly, and Keyguard is pretty, but I’m still looking around.)
Thank each and every one of you for taking time to answer my question!
The problem I had when I tried it out last (2 years ago?) was you could only generate passwords when connected to the server. Internet in my region is spotty, so I can’t reliably always have access to the server.
Other thing, not mentioned here, is how easy it is to share passwords. They also didnt at the time have a great user story for a common use case: 2-4 people who share all their passwords (me, my wife, and her parents). Setting up an org and multiple users was a bit of a pain, but that was a couple years ago, maybe it’s better now!
