UI is basically considered UX. Bitwarden’s app looks dated af and I have had strong doubts about committing to BW due to only that. It gives the impression that it is abandoned. Looks bad, basically. Not pretty. These things matter. It stands out among all my other modern looking apps, in a bad way.
You mean they are especially important in open source? Because I would say they’re important for all users of all software. That’s why the first word is “User” 😁
I’ve used Bitwarden because it’s available everywhere I need it, including a good Firefox desktop extension. The only thing I worry about how they raised VC funds in 2022, and hope that doesn’t lead to enshittification. Fortunately I’m prepared to switch to self-hosted alternatives if that’s the case.

I would definitely agree. I would say that UI and UX are pretty important in open source.

Or you mean also in open source? 👍
Just because it doesn’t look like it was made for old people with eyesight problems doesn’t mean it’s outdated.
No, but it does because I was using Android when apps looked like this, and it was freaking ages ago. And it looks worse. Subjectively of course.

Vaultwarden 👍
I wonder if they wouldn’t have needed VC funding if all these vaultwarden users paid the small price for premium or an organization licenses.
