I've been developing my own TUI Bitwarden client recently: https://github.com/luryus/wden I need passwords outside of the browser quite frequently (when SSHing to servers and so on), and the official Electron app just feels clunky and heavy to use and keep running constantly in the background. So creating a small and lightweight client optimized for my own usage patterns has been really useful. It may be useful for o…
I used Bitwarden until the time I was locked out of my LOCAL vault because of something goofy on the Bitwarden side. I'm on enPass now.

There's an official CLI though isn't there?
Whatever one of these password managers you may use, always remember to regularly export to the cleartext. Keep a 50 megabyte encrypted container around for it. Mount, export, unmount. Whenever you remember to do it, at least every couple of months. Even if it's not always up to date at least you won't be locked out of everything when these situations happen.

As a user of pass for like 4 years, I enjoy reading all those silly threads on password managers doing this and that. Fantastic. And it’s not even an upgrade to use the GUI app here, I can take any often used password of mine with pure Ctrl + R in my terminal, just a second and it’s here, with no need to do extra backups, all the history is in git, and no party will ever change anything about my passwords.

Genuinely curious here: why not keypass?

Why not use some better and entirely open solution, like pass? https://www.passwordstore.org/ As a user of pass for like 4 years, I enjoy reading all those silly threads on password managers doing this and that.

There doesn't seem to be major super popular audited autofill stuff, seems like the ecosystem is mostly smaller projects and the main focus is on the CLI.
The remainder of the times I need passwords are mostly on mobile.

Bitwarden is entirely open source?! https://github.com/bitwarden/
You aren't even locked in to using them as the data store.
