Can I take advantage of this on my mobile device or browser? Can I share with my team? It's not really apples to apples.
I run passff [1], to get Firefox to use it, and Android-Password-Store [2] on my phone.

My three points then were:
1. A stand-alone desktop app. Quite annoying to have to open up a browser every time I want to access a password. Basically, it's as inconvenient as Keychain on OSX if you're not using a browser when you need a login info. This could be solved if the browser plugin popup could be persisted as its own window.
2. iOS app is not polished. Not sure about Android app as I've not used it. (* biggest problem then was how slow search was. It has been improved although nowhere as fast as 1Password's—still)
3. In the Safari extension, I would love to be able to search and use item entries that are not specific to the domain. Sometimes, I have other info in secured notes or password entries without a domain that I want to get to from the extension. In these cases, I've had to leave the browser and open the actual app to get access to them.
I just migrated from Bitwarden to 1Password a few days ago and have been much happier since—especially with 1Password's ability to generate 2 factor tokens and put them in your pasteboard automatically so you don't ever have to pull up an Authenticator app!
I really, really want to be a big fan of Bitwarden. I even used it for the past year and a half. However, the last time HN talked about Bitwarden 7 months ago, I listed some reasons[0] why Bitwarden still fell massively short of 1Password, and I feel that those three points have not been addressed (which I believe impacts the friction/convenience of using Bitwarden).

Bitwarden also does this.

Yes. See the list of compatible clients on the page: https://www.passwordstore.org/#other
I personally use it on android happily.
> Can I share with my team?
Yes. Just encrypt to multiple gpg ids, which can be customized per folder as well with a simple list in the ".gpg-id" file.
I admit that you can only use it as such with tech-savvy team members. If you want usability such that non-technical people can work with it, you'll likely want something else, like 1password.

There has been a standalone Windows desktop app since February. https://bitwarden.com/#download > Especially with 1Password's ability to generate 2 factor tokens and put them in your pasteboard automatically so you don't ever have to pull up an Authenticator app! Bitwarden also does this.
I still felt its sluggish performance on launch/search/sync was slowing me down a lot throughout the day.
We evaluated Bitwarden to use as our company vault for shared accesses, however found OneLogin to have a better UI, additional functionality (especially when it came to syncing with our Google directory) and the price (for enterprise) wasn't too much less than OneLogin (which is negotiable anyways).

Thanks for letting me know! Somehow, it wasn't very obvious to me on both desktop app and OTP feature. I still felt its sluggish performance on launch/search/sync was slowing me down a lot throughout the day.
I recently switched (maybe 5 weeks or so, ago, from 1Password to Bitwarden, after finding out about it on HN) I imported ~400 odd logins from 1Password, I honestly don't find it any slower than 1 Password.
I did notice that with Discord, both 1Password and Bitwarden now integrate with the new iOS password apis.
First paragraph on their page disqualifies it completely. I do not want my passwords on anybody’s servers. Our secure cloud syncing features allow you to access your data from anywhere, on any device! Your vault is conveniently optimized for use on desktop, laptop, tablet, and phone devices.
