IBM Planning to Acquire HashiCorp
FWIW, most of the code and docs contributions have come from non-IBMers [0]. That said, IBM has done a lot of great work building the foundation and initial community and without them, OpenBao wouldn't be here. :-)
Speaking for myself, but I do not get any monetary compensation from IBM and I suspect this is true for all of the other non-IBM contributors.

Software Company HashiCorp Is Weighing a Potential Sale
on the off chance one hasn't been tracking it, there were several "we don't need your stinking BuSL" projects when this drama first started:
https://github.com/opentofu#why-opentofu (Terraform)
https://github.com/openbao/openbao#readme (Vault)
and I know of several attempts at Vagrant <https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/forks> but I don't believe one of them has caught traction yet
There are also some who have talked about an "open Nomad" but since I don't play in that space I can't speak to it
- OpenBAO – Fork of HashiCorp's Vault

OpenBao – FOSS Fork of HashiCorp Vault

HashiCorp Vault Forked into OpenBao
Well, lucky you, because now there's new management :-)
In all seriousness, you may want to open an issue <https://github.com/openbao/openbao/issues> as they have weighed in on a few threads here saying they're open to suggestions
Having implemented a reader for 1Password's "old" opvault format, I would imagine the threat model is not just searching, so it may be a heavy lift to coerce ~~Vault~~ OpenBao's mental model over into one that can be used as a consumer a password manager but I'll admit that would be pretty cool to unify vaultwarden and OpenBao into one stop shopping for all one's cryptographic needs

HashiCorp Vault Forked into OpenBao
In this realm, I’ve been happily using 1Password’s Operator for Kubernetes secrets.
Feel free to ignore the Nix stuff, but I’ve outlined how I create entries with the 1Password CLI: https://github.com/heywoodlh/flakes/tree/main/kube#1password...
After a OnePasswordItem is created, a secret containing your fields and their values appears. It’s marvelous!
(Integrations like this are why I switched away from Bitwarden to 1Password)
What are some alternatives?
infisical - ♾ Infisical is the open-source secret management platform: Sync secrets across your team/infrastructure and prevent secret leaks.
Nomad - Nomad is an easy-to-use, flexible, and performant workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications. Nomad is easy to operate and scale and has native Consul and Vault integrations.
cryptr - Cryptr: a GUI for Hashicorp's Vault
Gravitational Teleport - The easiest, and most secure way to access and protect all of your infrastructure.
nomad - CircleCI fork of nomad - use circleci/main branch
sealed-secrets - A Kubernetes controller and tool for one-way encrypted Secrets
conjur - CyberArk Conjur automatically secures secrets used by privileged users and machine identities
