Hello everyone!

Starting in the next release, the Bitwarden apps published to the various stores will be the commercially licensed builds. No action is needed, and the apps will work exactly as they do today.

Bitwarden remains committed to open source security and transparency
The GPLv3 OSS licensed version continues to be updated and published on GitHub
All current features are available in both versions
License details are on GitHub
Bitwarden remains committed to a robust, free forever plan for everyone

If you have any questions, please ask them in this thread. Thanks all!

EDIT:

Bitwarden is not going closed-source
You can still fork Bitwarden
No change to self-hosting, the licensing change affects those who are repackaging and reselling Bitwarden
The free plan is here to stay permanently

Consolidated LInux News, Linux Gaming and Linux Support all wrapped up into one community.

We care if you use Arch (but also care if you use Ubuntu, Redhat, Fedora, Gentoo, Kubuntu, etc)

Ask questions, explore Linux software and distributions.

Don't know where to begin with Linux? Feel free to ask!

Rules

  1. We're aiming for a positive community
  2. Yes, you will get banned if you act toxic towards other commenter's
  3. If you feel like something is "AI Slop", down-vote and move on.
  4. No politics.
  5. Feel free to ask questions or post projects (including your own), regardless of Linux Distro.
  6. You don't need to like every project. Constructive criticism is ok.
  7. No Go Fund Me's / Kickstarters. But requests for more project contributions/donations is ok for free projects (which have already released the project).
