HSBC blocks app users for having sideloaded password manager • The Register
https://www.theregister.com/2026/01/07/hsbc_bitwarden_sideloaded/
I'm taking the plunge, migrating from #Bitwarden to #1Password for my family's password manager. To facilitate that I've written a tool for migrating my Bitwarden data into 1Password, since neither Bitwarden's export functionality nor 1Password's import functionality are sufficient. More details here: https://blog.kamens.us/2026/01/07/a-better-way-to-migrate-your-data-from-bitwarden-to-1password/. Share and enjoy!

A better way to migrate your data from Bitwarden to 1Password
I have been using Bitwarden for the better part of a decade. When I started using it, it was a relatively small open-source project maintained well, and supported well, mostly by a single person. Then it started chasing after growth and VC funding, and things gradually started to go downhill. Recently, the frequency at which Bitwarden introduces annoying new bugs into shipped product has increased dramatically. While correlation is not causation, it is worth noting that it has also recently gone all in on generative AI. This has prompted me to decide that it’s time to think about switching from Bitwarden to 1Password.
Why 1Password? Because their security architecture is rock solid, they’re extremely transparent about it, to my knowledge they’ve never suffered a security breach impacting customer data, I’m familiar with them from previous jobs, I know they have the functionality I need, and last but not least, my current job is using it which means as long as I am working there I get 1Password Families for free.
Fortunately I haven’t yet jumped onto the passkeys bandwagon (until I can export passkeys, back them up to my own storage, and import them from my backup to another vendor of my own choice, they are not an acceptable alternative for me), so I’ve got no passkeys in Bitwarden that I need to worry about replacing. However, I had thousands of other data in Bitwarden that I needed to migrate into 1Password, and the import functionality provided for this by 1Password wasn’t good enough:
I wanted to do better.
Fortunately, I’ve already previously written and shared a tool, bitwarden-backup.py, for exporting all data including attachments from Bitwarden, so all I needed to do was figure out how to import that data into 1Password. For that, I’ve just written and shared 1password-from-bitwarden-backup.py.
The script successfully migrates most data in Bitwarden items into 1Password, including turning Bitwarden folders into 1Password tags and mapping Bitwarden collections into 1Password vaults. You can customize the collections to vaults logic to organize things the way you want in 1Password without having to move things around in Bitwarden. It’s also smart enough not to reimport items twice if you run it multiple times.
Share and enjoy!
#1Password #BitwardenBefore I migrate the email and other stuff, I'm evaluating tools, I use #bitwarden for password manager but I'm also evaluating
- ProtonPass
- KeepassXC & KeepassDX (android)
- Passvault
They all have password generators but have you guys used the printable password generators?

It took a while but you can finally edit items in #BitSailor!
And you can now choose to use system certificates instead of the bundled ones (or ignore validation entirely which also gives you a beautiful permanent red banner saying you shouldn't do it).
@GroupNebula563 #Bitwarden's password strength checker (which I believe uses zxcvbn) reckons it'd take centuries to crack...
En Disroot han anunciado como «regalo de navidad» una nueva herramienta: Vaulwarden es la versión abierta y alternativa compatible con el gestor de contraseñas BitWarden. Parece la opción ideal si estás a gusto en ese ecosistema pero prefieres conservar tu caja fuerte alejada del servidor oficial.
Personalmente no he llegado a probar Vaultwarden, pero me encanta que un servicio gratuito como Disroot siga añadiendo funciones a mayores de su nube y correo electrónico. Y ya van 15!
Ich sollte meinen CorpoStack (bzw. neuer Name wird vermutlich KMU!Suite) mal flott machen, dass ich ihn zum nächsten Digital Independence Day präsentieren kann.
im Anhang ein Screenshot. Ich schreibe hier mal die alternativen hin:
- Jira + Confluence -> #OpenProject
- Github + GH-Actions -> #forgejo + #WoodpeckerCI
- Outlook -> #Mailcow and #Sogomail
- Slack -> #Tuwunel + #CinnyApp
- Zoom -> #Jitsi
- Chrome Passwörter ->#Vaulwarden
- Google Drive -> #Nextcloud (mit OnlyOffice ) + Paperless-NGX + #Etherpad
(Etherpad ist eigentlich nur drin, weil Jitsi und Nextcloud nicht so gehen, wie ich es wollte.
Dann noch #Keycloack um Nutzer zu verwalten und #EspoCRM für Kunden. Achja und natürlich #Dashy für das Dashboard.
OS: daily driving #Linux for ~2 years.
Email: #Proton for ~6 years, #Tuta for ~1 year (recently switched my business to Tuta)
Password Manager: Proton Pass for most things. Self hosted #Bitwarden for my homeland stuff.
Search: Used #DuckDuckGo and #StartPage for a long time but recently moved to a self hosted instance of #SearXNG
So, I haven’t used my #Linux machine in roughly a year.
I booted it up and remembered my encryption password. 👍
But I can’t remember my login password. 👎Apparently I was not smart enough to save this in my #Bitwarden or #ProtonPass #passwordmanager 🙄
Did by chance save it in my old OneNote password notebook? Maybe. But I also can’t remember that password and also didn’t save that one in a pw manager 
FML.

Ovviamente, l'utilizzo di un password manager è fondamentale. #Bitwarden #KeepassXC solo per citarne due

Asking for help! My wife is currently locked out of most digital services due to her phone being broken, and all passwords being in #bitwarden . The bitwarden webapp doesn't help because it asks a verification code, sent on an email which password is.. in bitwarden.
What can we do?
Edit: thanks for reposts and replies, sourds like there's no real solution until we get back to home where we should have a desktop with access to the mails...
Listicle (1/2): some software and widgets I love using on my #Fedora #KDE daily driver (not necessarily Linux exclusive!)
1. #Syncthing - I have setup Syncthing to sync and backup most of my user files between my main digital devices. I have one directory that I use for two-way sync, but four other directories set-up to sync only one-way (from Desktop to mobile devices)
2. #Sunshine / #Moonlight - It was originally built to stream games, but I mainly use it to remote into my desktop through my Android tablet (to be used as a laptop or drawing tablet) and through the laptop hooked up to the living room TV (to watch movies/shows on "the big screen"!)
3. #Bitwarden #Keyguard - I might eventually move to an offline password storage system, but this is just perfect as an online setup. It just works!
4. #Vivaldi - I just love all the customisation options on offer. Originally moved to Vivaldi because there were a few Chrome extensions that I couldn't use on my previous browser (which was Firefox-based). I do value my privacy, but not a purist - knowing that Vivaldi is anti-AI and pro-privacy (post-adoption) is definitely a huge plus.
5. #KDE - I love how customizable KDE is; the only gripe I have with KDE Plasma is that it can crash randomly sometimes (maybe my hardware is just too old).
Petite question pour les utilisateurs d’#emacs et d’#android ici, qu’est-ce que vous utilisez comme gestionnaire de mots de passe avec un client disponible pour les deux et auto-hebergeable?
J’utilisais #passwordstore qui me convenait parfaitement mais le client android n’est plus maintenu :(
Pour l’instant je teste #vaultwarden mais je trouve le client bureau de #bitwarden pas super pratique à utiliser, c’est trop pensé pour une navigation à la souris et ça rend l’utilisation beaucoup moins fluide que ce que j’ai actuellement.
Password-store encore une fois a un super paquet pour emacs qui me permet en un raccourci clavier de lancer le client, rechercher mon mot de passe, le copier et à nouveau avec le premier raccourci de rebasculer sur l’appli ou j’étais avant (j’utilise #exwm comme environnement de bureau)
Je n’ai pas vu de client natif emacs pour bitwarden, la meilleure piste que je vois c’est le paquet #emacs-bitwarden (https://github.com/seanfarley/emacs-bitwarden?tab=readme-ov-file) qui est en fait un wrapper pour le client en ligne de commande bw et qui permet d’intégrer bitwarden comme auth-source en mode lecture seule.
Ceci-dit les vraies fonctionalités de partage de mots de passe et d’organisation de vaultwarden sont plutôt attirantes.
Avant de me lancer à fond sur vaultwarden je voudrais être sûr qu’il n’y a pas d’autre solution évidente que j’aurais zappée…
I really like the icons / symbols of @bitwarden
@cmccullough Question: Why?
I use #bitwarden and have an incredibly secure password. It is not used anywhere else. What do I get from using 2FA? Honest question, the only thing I can think of is keyloggers?
Since I switched from #Firefox to #LibreWolf (I use the Bookmark Syncing and #Bitwarden add-ons), my primary computer (with a Xeon processor — 10 Cores/ 20 Threads) has been incredibly efficient and quiet. Fan never goes above 10%. Using Firefox,fan hitting nearly 90% usage because Firefox keeps doing background tasks! I should mention that I have about 500 tabs open... ;)
There's been some sort of (compatibility) issue between #Vaultwarden and the latest #Bitwarden clients since abt a week ago. They've fixed it, but a stable release with the fix has not been published just yet - in fact the last stable release was 5 months ago. The project is actively being worked on though, but I'm not particularly familiar with the project to know why the big gap in stable releases.
