Bitwarden have in my opinion is one of the BEST business models a user can ask for.
It's open-source, and I can self-host (100% free) and the free version is really, really good too, and then a premium version is $20/year which is very reasonably priced.
Also for cloud hosted password manager, you're always going to have attacks no matter what, but at least they are transparent about it .. (unlike say LastPass, Norton LifeLock, Keeper and possibly others).
For self-hosting it might be better security, solely because no one cares to attack it, but it's not going to be more secure form engineering best practices POV (but again I might be wrong .. I'm not a security engineer of any kind)
I also don't really expect the self-hosted version to be a small self-contained go binary or something, they have millions of users their tech stack is going to be more complicated necessarily. But then vaultwarden exists too and is well maintained but is then somehow also inadequate. Who could possibly live up these unreasonable standards?

I've been paying a flat $10 since 2022. Today, I got an email saying my renewal price goes up to $20 plus tax, which totals $25. The loyal member 25% discount just eliminates the tax for me.
Given that all I've used it for is password and login storage and TOTP all these years, I don't find a 200% price increase to be reasonable. I've cancelled the premium, I can run my TOTP somewhere else.
As a now almost 15 year long user (crazy to think about) of 1password I am unsure what attacks do you mean? Did passwords get lost and it was not disclosed or what did you mean by the lack of transparency?
Not sure why, but they did cooperate with the government on such matters
Facebook previously gave private Messenger chats to Nebraska police, these messages were used as key evidence to charge a mother and daughter over an alleged illegal abortion[1]
GoDaddy always struck me as a company ran by a "jock" (think Revenge of the Nerds) and all the technical people there are just there to collect a paycheck and don't care about the customers or going above and beyond, and it shows.
Just search for GoDaddy stories on old Slashdot. I've known since I had my own computer that GoDaddy=NoDaddy.
It's funny, the only time I can recall a programmer describing something as sexist (towards women) in the early/mid 2000's was somebody describing GoDaddy's booth at a convention. That really stuck with me for some reason, lol.
GoDaddy has also been blocking entire countries from being able to access all services.
And to make it far worse, IIRC, at a certain point, those blocks applied not only to GoDaddy's own website, but even to the DNS services that are provided for the customers, e.g., your own website wouldn't necessarily work from the "wrong" country, either.
Honestly, I dunno why anyone would use their services. High price, very low value.
I switched to zero sugar about a year ago, but all the zero sugar sodas use aspartame (yeah yeah not proven to cause cancer, but still not a great sweetener)
for now (out of laziness), I just grab plain sparkling water and add Stur drops
Also didn’t expect to be pulling recipes off GitHub, but I’ll take that any day over those paywalled sites
It definitely varies from person to person. I'm on the more sensitive side of tasting bitter substances, although I do like bitter foods like Brussels sprouts, grapefruit and kumquats, and I'm okay when food is sometimes bitter, as happens with cucumbers and eggplant, but when foods that aren't normally bitter are sweetened with bitter sweeteners, I really don't like them, even if it's a natural sweetener, like stevia.
Monk fruit is quite expensive, so I'm afraid it will not become very popular in commercial products like candy bars and soft drinks. But for DIY it is certainly a nice option.
yeah, another way to put it: if you don't want factories, that's fine; just don't buy manufactured stuff .. the same with data centers, if you don't want data centers then don't go on the Internet because by doing so you're becoming part of the problem.
I don't know if I get you're points because lobster farms are tied to certain external factors in a way things like data centers aren’t.
but either way, the argument feels very NIMBY: it’s not ‘no housing,’ it’s ‘just not here.’
so when someone say ‘let someone else host them,’ it really comes across as: I want the internet, just let other communities pay the environmental cost.
The cost of running a datacenter and the impact it has is also tied to external factors. The environmental cost is not the same in all locations. There are differences in land use, environmental requirements, power generation methods, and the downstream impact of all of those.
