Firefox has a built in password manager, it is stored on each machine you sync. But to anwer your question any cloud stored data is vulnerable, so be sure your password manager supports other verification measures such as Yubikey as another factor of authentication
Self-hosting removes the risk of somebody compromising Bitwarden’s servers and adding malicious javascript to send off your master password to a bad actor instead of just processing it locally like it’s designed to.
I think the chances of such a breach are vanishingly small. I wonder if I'm right though.
I think anyone capable of pulling off such a feat is not interested in my data, and probably more likely looking for government employee access etc..
They don’t need to be interested though. You could conceivably dump all the password you collect in an attack and just start trying them automatically like you would any other breach. Find a bunch of bank accounts and your chances you getting away with millions are high. Not to mention: a breach like this means changing all your saved passwords to re-secure them which is a multi-day affair.
Always self-host anything you can (reasonably).
In this case, don't self-host a password vault. Use a locally encrypted password storage app, and keep it in a self-hosted storage solution (which should also be encrypted).
People want to put too much shit online, opens you wide up for attempted hacking (especially if you use what everyone else uses).
I have bitwarden family SaaS. So I can share password with my group.
Premium features for free. There are no benefits in relying on a third-party
Well 'no benefits' is a bit of a stretch.
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
