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.
