It was one of the easiest to setup and it works flawlessly. I’m a bit paranoid about losing my data even with the backups… Any recommendation?

        Same for email. I can’t afford it to be down for days while I stress out about fixing whatever it was that I broke.

          Actually on premise self hosting email is just stupid these days. I do have my domain email set up with a local provider, but I don’t use it. Again, email is crucial and I don’t trust myself

    how are you doing your backups now? are you using the 3-2-1 backup strategy?

      Not really, no. I have an HDD and an SSD both in a same machine. Data in SSD gets copied to HDD everyday. I don’t have any remote backup yet. How do you do your remote backup?

    I regularly hear it’s great. Has anyone moved from KeePass? I haven’t read anything that makes me think I should move on from KeePass. I have maybe ~4-5 clients and merging databases has been very easy since no client is offline for too long.

    I’ve been using it for a few months now and love it. I have it on 2 VMs. 1 at home and 1 on my dedicated server in the cloud.

    I have a horribly written script that stops the vaultwarden container on the home VM, it copies the db.sqlite3 files to the VM in the cloud using SCP, copies everything inside the attachments folder using SCP and then starts the container again. I then have the same type of script on the cloud VM that stops the container, grabs the db and attachments from the temp folder and moves them to the correct directories and starts the container.

    I only use the instance on the VM at home, the cloud VM is only used if something has happened to the VM at home. I do the same with my netbox instance.

    I also don’t expose anything to the internet. Everything is behind WireGuard. I have my phone setup with Tasker to automatically connect the tunnel when my phone disconnects from my home WiFi SSID.

    I use vaultwarden as my bitwarden backup. I pay for bitwarden premium because it’s too critical of a service for me to not pay for access/support the service, or to expect my self hosted option will be sufficiently reliable enough.

    That said, as a backup option, I run the vaultwarden addon in home assistant and just periodically do a manual export from bitwarden and import to vaultwarden. This is usually good enough for me, but glad to see this thread with some other options. Will be exploring some of these too!

      Oooh, I like this idea… I’ve thought about running vaultwarden but like you I pay for bitwarden premium because I think it’s critical for me and I like the service and want to see them continue. Using it as a backup, then I can still support them and run my own backup.

    From what I understand of it your passwords and all should be save as it also stores them clientsided. So its more like your sync is down. But dont quote me on that

    The nice thing about syncing services like Vaultwarden is that all your synced devices kind of act like backups. You should still keep proper backups too, of course, but this makes me sleep a bit better at night at least.

      Yeah, this too… like… I have Bitwarden synced in different computers/phones, so at least most of the passwords will still be somewhere.

    You may have just inspired me to do the same lol, I’m self hosting most of my other things… For some reason, keeping my own data safe with bitwarden is kinda freaking me out too lol

      TOTP function is what really made it happen. It brings me so much joy to have one, self hosted service to do everything login related compared to using Authy too. I was way too invested in Authy which was never comfortable for me. I now found peace.

        Is having your passwords and TOTP in one place recommended? I would’ve thought that having both separate would be more secure.

          That definitely is my concern but I think as long as I keep my master pw safe, which is ridiculously long, I’ll be fine. I don’t use my master pw anywhere else.

          It still defends against one failure mode (the website gets hacked but you’re ok) but yeah, obviously if you get hacked and the hacker knows how to get your vault out then you’re 100% screwed.

          My suggestion is always hardware 2FA, even though it’s not as mature as the other systems. Personally I have two Yubikeys (in case one breaks/gets lost) but it does mean that I need to add TOTPs to both of them each time I add a new 2FA.

            I’m fairly certain hardware based 2fa has been around since the early 90s maybe even earlier. It’s not the maturity that’s the issue, as I’m fairly certain its significantly older than application based, but that it’s extremely inconvenient for the user to have to buy a physical key and keep it safe
