PSA: the bitwarden clients got an upgrade that makes them incompatible with vaultwarden

If you got the automatic updates on the bitwarden clients, they will show an empty vault if you are selfhosting vaultwarden.

It seems to be an accidental bug in the bitwarden clients that are assuming that they’re talking with official servers

It’s fixed with the latest release of the vaultwarden server that was published a few minutes ago

It seems like it’s a subscription from what I can tell. I see some people buying ‘lifetime’ subscriptions in the play store reviews, so I’m guessing that’s the case. Now, it also looks like it’s from one lone developer with 27 contributors in GitHub. The app can be downloaded from GitHub (I would use obtainium for that), so that’s a good thing. I think supporting developments like this via a subscription (assuming it’s not crazy expensive) should be normalized if the product is good enough. On that factor, I can’t really comment since I just KeePass the hell out of my credentials over Syncthing, but I do believe there’s value in supporting developers like this guy.
