  • While Rust would probably have been a good choice for implementing a new browser, I don’t think Swift deserves the criticism it’s getting in this thread:

    • Swift was created by the same person who created Rust, and has many of the same nice traits
    • Swift is a modern language that is easy for plenty of developers to pick up; I’d place it in the same family as Rust and Kotlin
    • Swift grants access to a large pool of native iOS/Mac developers



  • Should have say: self-hosting is always superior to cloud hosting.

    That statement still comes with a pretty damn big caveat though - you need to have the know-how, the time to invest and the hardware (i.e money) to actually set something like this up.

    If all of those are true, then self-hosting can definitely be an attractive option for you.

    It’s only true for a vanishingly small fraction of the population, though.

    Hence, Bitwarden is a pragmatic solution that will be superior for the vast majority of the population.
