Likewise, and I'm loving Bitwarden so far!

Although I'm using the dockerized rust API (1) for self-hosting it, and so far it's been working great for months! I am keeping a close eye on the container, and backing up the data hourly to ensure I don't need to worry about loosing anything.

I was evaluating Bitwarden years ago (before bitwarden_rs), but was thrown off by the lack of support for 2FA tokens without a subscription.

Does selfhosting with bitwarden_rs solve this ? or do i still need a subscription for storing 2FA tokens along with passwords ?

I have absolutely no problem paying once per major version for software, open source or not, but i refuse to pay any subscription. At least when buying a version i can choose to upgrade or not.

Yes bitwarden_rs supports 2FA, including U2F keys. I setup my own instance in a Docker container on my Synology. I only have access to it while I am at home (or VPNed in) as I'm not willing to punch a hole in my firewall for external access.

bitwarden_rs solves this.

bitwarden_rs is definitely the way to go. I’ve been hosting it for my own use only for a couple of years now; never had any problems, and it’s a negligible drain on resources. It uses less than 20MB of disk space (15MB of the package, 2.3MB of icon cache, 408KB of sqlite database), about 24MB of RAM (admittedly it used to be about 13MB, but it’s still insignificant drain) and has an average CPU usage of less than 0.002% over 54 days of uptime (1:22.55).

Meanwhile the standard Bitwarden backend needs SQL Server and demands to have 2GB of RAM. No idea how little you could actually get away with, but I’m confident won’t be 25MB.

Also a massive fan of this project - seems a no brainier compared to the original for personal use.

My big recommendation is to backup the binary at the same time as your sql backup.

They've got a github sponsors link too FWIW.
