I've cancelled my subscription yesterday, conveniently it was about to renew at the end of the week, so I have a few days to migrate from Proton, here's what I'm thinking of, but I'd love to hear what other people are switching to

I would maybe hold off on choosing Bitwarden. Around the time they raised their pricing they started getting venture capitalist money so the enshittification there may be coming. As far as alternatives, the only other one I've used besides Proton is KeePass which could be make or break depending on how you setup the vault, I'd probably save it in something pCloud so you aren't screwed should something happen to your server, but YMMV.

I recently found https://www.aliasvault.com/. It is still in early-ish development but the 1.0 release including a security audit is planned for end of this or beginning of next year. The main developer is also very active on https://www.privacyguides.org/ and listens to community feedback.

Cant wait for it to mature a bit. Right now my biggest gripe is UI/UX related.

I've now seen aliasvault so many times I'm starting to be suspicious of it. Thankfully its only been in this community so I can acknowledge that I'm the problem and not them, but it just reminds me of Omarchy a few months back having never heard of it and suddenly every tech YouTuber is mentioning it. Again, I'm the problem, aliasvault seems promising.
