Vaultwarden - Password management server

Password reuse is rampant: nearly half of observed user logins are compromised
I've taken a liking to using a self-hosted Bitwarden instance via vaultwarden, and it's been a pretty good experience. The vaultwarden server is only accessible through my Tailscale network for extra security.

Moving away from US cloud services
On Bitwarden, at least for now, it's mostly Open Source … for techies, for the server-side, there's Vaultwarden which is easy to self-host and with self-hosting of FOSS software you achieve true data sovereignty.

I'm an EU citizen and I worry about the US as well, but we need to be careful about this migration to EU services, as in some areas the European alternatives aren't good enough and people will go back to Big Tech, instead of preferring a FOSS solution that happens to have US dependencies.

Bitwarden Authenticator
Vaultwarden [1] if you want to keep using the Bitwarden clients but with a different backend. You can also use KeePassXC and self-hosted cloud instance to sync your database between devices [2]

not to be rude, but vaultwarden setup is fairly straightforward for an advanced user:
1. Point your domain's DNS at your server
2. Create data directory
3. Run the Docker command

Bitwarden SDK relicensed from proprietary to GPLv3
Old versions of vaultwarden broke recently (for just about everyone?) due to incompatible changes on the iOS client.
Breakage is not ideal, but here's how they handled the second, more subtle compatibility break:
https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/issues/5069
I haven't worked up the courage / time to back up my database and upgrade the docker container; will probably get to it this weekend. However, I can't imagine using bitwarden with the official server (too bloated to be trustworthy), or with their cloud thing. I got burnt by lastpass. I'm not putting my passwords in a giant high-value target again.
