What is the point of vaultwarden? Is it safer or less safe than using the bitwarden app/website? (alien.top)

Not sure I understand why you'd want to self host a password manager. Bitwarden has never been breached AFAIK. How is it better or safer to keep if self hosted?

Bitwarden has never been breached AFAIK

Password managers are a HUGE target, and while I'm sure they do everything possible to prevent a breach from actually obtaining peoples passwords, vulnerabilities do happen.

That's why I think self hosted Bitwarden or KeePass with a file are the way to go.
