UI is basically considered UX. Bitwarden’s app looks dated af and I have had strong doubts about committing to BW due to only that. It gives the impression that it is abandoned. Looks bad, basically. Not pretty. These things matter. It stands out among all my other modern looking apps, in a bad way.
I’ve used Bitwarden because it’s available everywhere I need it, including a good Firefox desktop extension. The only thing I worry about how they raised VC funds in 2022, and hope that doesn’t lead to enshittification. Fortunately I’m prepared to switch to self-hosted alternatives if that’s the case.

I mean that’s true about Proton and several others too, right? Like Firefox itself, can fill passwords and sync them across devices. That’s basically what I’m using for convenience. No extra app needed to store passwords.
Maybe that’s unsafe? I dunno. I just haven’t found something as convenient as that yet.
Yeah, whatever floats your boat! Firefox password manager is fine, but I have some devices where I don’t use Firefox, so I need cross-platform. Plus, Bitwarden can save other stuff securely like notes, and the features it has for secure password generation work very well.

Just because it doesn’t look like it was made for old people with eyesight problems doesn’t mean it’s outdated.
