Why did you switch from bitwarden?
Because they did some stuff a while back with closed source code, and it scared me off. I'm not the most tech literate person, so I mainly base my stuff off what the open source nerds tell me to do. With a password manager in particular I wanted to be on something open source, because I don't trust big corpos not to backdoor into my shit, especially since I don't really understand how it works and don't know how to keep myself safe other than listening to people who know more than I do. So when the open source folks started saying get off bitwarden, I did, because I saw what happened with other password managers that had leaks and hacks. Plus, I wanted a vpn anyway (and now actually need one if I want to watch porn in my Christofascist state), and they only charge me like 20 bucks for everything.
