$10/yr is not a big price for what you get. I don’t think I even use the extra features you get with the subscription, but supporting the maintenance and development of a product I would like to use for years to come is important.
Agreed. I like that the free version works well. The lack of pressure or nagging toward paying is what gets me to want to pay. I usually avoid subscriptions.
I usually self host but the fact that the option is there and I can use it any time in the future is the main reason i use BW and kick them a bit of money. And not bring nagged or forced to subscribe is a major factor for me as well.
There’s an ad at the upper right of my inbox right now. And UBO won’t block it because it’s from Proton. I also have to go and disable the “sent from Proton” ad every time I log in with a new device.
I switched to bitwarden when last pass announced they were changing there free model so you can only use your passwords on browser or mobile but not both. Liked bitwarden way better and immediately did the yearly sub to support them.
When LastPass got hacked I switched to bitwarden and never looked back. Simple and effective interface, works on all platforms, I love it!
It’s awesome. After using it free for years, I recently became a paid subscriber as a show of support.

I’m a paying user of Proton “unlimited” and they still shove ads down my throat.
Protonmail? Never seen an ad even on the free plan. Of course, I have UBO so I don’t see ads anywhere.

10 bucks per year is a small price to pay to support good business
Honestly, I have been thinking of doing the same. I really don’t require any of their premium features and am getting it to show my support.
$10/yr is dirt cheap for something so important in our online life.

Same after dashlane just announced they’re limiting the number of passwords you can use on the free account, migrating was painless
Same here. Bitwarden has been good to me so far!
Their desktop app isn’t as nice as LastPass, but I’ll put up with a minor inconvenience to keep my passwords secure.
