Hello everyone!

Starting in the next release, the Bitwarden apps published to the various stores will be the commercially licensed builds. No action is needed, and the apps will work exactly as they do today.
Bitwarden remains committed to open source security and transparency
The GPLv3 OSS licensed version continues to be updated and published on GitHub
All current features are available in both versions
License details are on GitHub
Bitwarden remains committed to a robust, free forever plan for everyone
If you have any questions, please ask them in this thread. Thanks all!

EDIT:
Bitwarden is not going closed-source
You can still fork Bitwarden
No change to self-hosting, the licensing change affects those who are repackaging and reselling Bitwarden
The free plan is here to stay permanently

I just cannot get on board with Proton Pass while I cant have a completely different set of credentials.

I keep my Proton passwords inside the password manager. Either I need to make my Proton password memorable and be my master password OR setup the 2 password mode where I need to remember and login 2 passwords.

They need some kind of privacy pass implementation to link your Proton pass to your Proton account while allowing completely separate credentials.

I keep the master password inside proton pass itself. I don't want to be trusted with remembering anything. What if I lose my memory, ya know. They give a twelve word backup which you can use in case you get signed out of every device.
