Bitwarden许可模型变动引发的用户体验与替代方案需求
问题概述
Bitwarden转向双授权/部分开源许可模型后，用户对Chrome扩展性能差、开源可持续性担忧以及软件工程质量下降三方面表示不满，部分用户转而使用Keyguard+Vaultwarden等替代方案，现有扩展被指慢、Bug多且过于沉重。
痛点标签
- Chrome扩展程序过于沉重，启动耗时超过100ms，尤其在M1 Max等Apple Silicon设备上体验差
- 许可模型转向‘部分开源/商业限制’引发用户对项目可持续性的担忧，担心被大型公司利用代码且自身难以竞争
- 软件工程质量被感知为不足，现有浏览器扩展Bug多且慢，用户转而使用Keyguard+Vaultwarden等替代组合，缺乏第三方扩展选择
待验证问题
- 您是否认为Chrome扩展的性能问题是导致您寻找替代方案的主要原因？
- ‘部分开源+商业限制’的许可模型对您的信任度和付费意愿有何影响？
- 您是否已经转向其他密码管理方案？如果是，主要驱动因素是什么？

I actually find this somewhat understandable; and I'll be continuing my subscription; as long as all source continues to be available and personal self-hosting remains a viable option. Yes, I'd much prefer full open source, but 'all source available; some restrictions on commercial use' is still miles better; the OSS funding and incentives problem is still unsolved.

Okay, it’s good they have the open source because if you rewrite the Chrome extension you can get it to load in under 100 ms after you click the button. If you use the standard Chrome extension you’re not having that happen on an M1 Max. Their stuff is far too heavy. Full JS framework to display a small box.

IMO Bitwarden really isn't that well engineered software, and I now use Keyguard on Android/Vaultwarden server instead. Reminds me of Subsonic, with many competing clients/servers. Hopefully someone will write a third party browser extension as the current one is quite slow/buggy.
