If you look at the roadmap they have in the blogpost, they are apparently planning tighter integration with the existing bitwarden suite
...but wouldn't that undermine the fact that it's standalone and offline?
The idea is that it can then work both says, like https://ente.io/auth does
Sand the fact that it's a 2fa. A thicker integration with bitwarden would make it like a 1.5fa
I don't see why it would if it's optional
How so? They already have TOTP built-in to the app if you pay for premium, so this is just a free competitor to their own offering.
I'm guessing they're trying to make it a "gateway" to getting people on Bitwarden. Start with the TOTP app, then use the password manager, then pay for premium. Or something like that.
