I thought Bitwarden is open source. Is it not a standard license? Can you not fork it and change its behavior?

It's $10 per year.

Is it really worth your time forking it to remove licence checks, when you could instead support the developers and not need to make any code changes?

Forking the code and removing licencing checks is perfectly permissible under the GPL. But it's pretty unreasonable in this case.

I don't disagree with you, but I was asking about the following:

> but it seems to have some license purchase requirements even for the self-hosted options

which doesn't appear to be completely true, regardless of whether you think it's worth your time or or reasonable.

Yes.

The license check is relatively easy to bypass, and there are also forks and reimplementations out there that already do so.
