Is Bitwarden preparing for a sale?by Jan-Lukas ElseJan-Lukas writes about the warning signs that Bitwarden might be heading for a private equity sale. The irony is that founder built Bitwarden because he didn't trust what happened when LastPass got acquired.Read post ➡I saw this on the fedi this morning and it made me let out a big sigh. I was an early adopter of Bitwarden, having used it for nearly 10 years at this point, after LastPass were acquired by LogMeIn.If this does come to fruition (I really hope it doesn't) I'm not sure what I'd do. My wife and I have a family account and share many credentials, so whatever I potentially flip to would need to be super simple to use, like Bitwarden.The fact that Bitwarden is so simple yo use, yet so secure, is a testament to how good of a product it really is. So I'd rather not jump ship.Let's not get ahead of ourselvesIn the Fast Company post that Jan-Lukas links to, there's a quote following an email from Bitwarden's "chief customer officer", Gary Orenstein, saying:Orenstein says via email that Bitwarden is not seeking a buyer, and that Sullivan’s [new CEO] appointment “reflects a continued focus at Bitwarden on scaling the business and serving customers globally.”That gives me some hope, but it could also be corporate bullshit - let's be honest, it wouldn't be the first time.I'm not going to make any rash decisions though. I get a tonne of use from Bitwarden, so I don't want to move unless I have to. Even if they are sold, I'd have to consider my options once I know who they've potentially been sold to.For now it's business as usual for me and my password manager.
