Bitwarden lite self-host deployment, formerly unified, is now generally available! This self-host option is a more lightweight and flexible deployment alternative, ideal for homelab enthusiasts and community members who want to get started quickly with self-hosting Bitwarden. With the release of general availability, Bitwarden lite users can benefit from enhanced performance and reliability.
Seems to be an official alternative to Vaultwarden



Compared to other subscriptions their family plan is very fair. IIRC they even allow commercial use (small companies).
But yeah, I get your sentiment. Still a good option if vendor support is important.
The Bitwarden family plan has been one of the best expenses (if you want to call it that, because it really isn’t that expensive) in our family.
Seconded. My option is that if it’s vital to my infrastructure or my family I don’t self host it. Let someone else deal with patching/maintenance/uptime.
