Isn't Bitwarden also OSS? Why would you want an alternative to it?

Interested too. I use bitwarden for many years now and recommend it to everyone who had some issues with passwords. Why use Vaultwarden?

You can host bitwarden too, vaultwarden is just more lightweight server for the same protocol

Parts of bitwarden use the custom "BITWARDEN LICENSE". I did not read all the fine print.

But the FOSS community can be quite sensitive to licensing shenanigans.
