  • Any update on importing Proton Pass .json/.zip into Bitwarden?
    1 project | /r/Bitwarden | 8 Nov 2023
    Bug fix for this has been merged last week. It is not in 2023.10 though, so you will have to wait for the next release of the web vault.
  • Bitwarden Adds Support for Passkeys

    It's definitely out (https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/releases/tag/browser-v2... just looks like browsers haven't approved it yet.

    I'm not sure about any specifics beyond that both are getting support for them (for the keepass ecosystem I'm sure about other mobile clients, but I don't think the feature request to support passkeys has been acknowledged by the keepass2android dev sadly). Here's the keepassxc PR with some details about the implementation, and what should be done in future work on passkey support: https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/pull/8825

    Bitwarden has a few blogs if you search for bitwarden passkeys, but from skimming one it didn't seem to go into technical details (though I didn't watch the videos). I guess you could look through the PRs: https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/pulls?q=is%3Apr+passkey... but I don't really feel like doing that.

  • Is it really legit?
    1 project | /r/Bitwarden | 3 Sep 2023
    Bitwarden has regular external audits (here is the 2022 audit) and the code (both server side and client side) is open source (here f.e).
  • Bitwarden Secrets Manager now generally available

    /bitwarden_license directory

    Now the secret manager is in the `bitwarden_license` directory so it is not a GPL covered product and not open source but covered by BITWARDEN LICENSE AGREEMENT [3]. It does not allow you to use it as OSS.

    There are apparently known problems (GitHub Issues #5807) in both Edge and FireFox with this newly released browser extension update (2023.7.0), which should hopefully be fixed soon. In the meantime, on Edge, you can revert to version 2023.5.1 for Chromium, which is still available from the Google Chrome store:
