That's called "paranoia." You're inventing conspiracy theories.
tbh I don't think any of the 2 sides here could know that their opinion is the truth. we can't say that it's intentional, but can't either that it's just a honest mistake, so far everyone saying that just sounds to apply wishful thinking. let's see what happens in a few years, and then we may be able to judge future incidents better.
I wish it's just pananoia though I think that statement only in the skeptical realm, and I wish nothing substantial changed. I'm hosting vaultwarden currently for my family. To them the app on their phone is paramount. However, it is proven some will go that route, like Android. After all, a for -profit company goal is to make money.
There is a risk and a probability one need to evaluate. Nothing wrong to plan for an exit, but abandoning the software right now is simply overreaction.
As long as I can use it with a self-hosted server with features they expect, I'm don't think I will move away from it.
This is a much more level take than your first comment.
It is not always I want to write this long to explain what in my thoughts. The conclusion remains the same as my first comment.
I always maintain a healthy dose of skepticism on anything. Not that they would do it again and it is highly probable that's only a mistake but no one can tell except Bitwarden themselves. However, all the outsiders like us can only take their statement at face value and some skepticism will keeps eyes sharp.
