Yep, exactly. I selfhost Vaultwarden and a bunch of other apps that my family also use. So I run Authentik, which lets them only have to worry about remembering one login, and they then have a little dashboard of all our apps, and can click to login to whatever they want. It's a pretty decent little system, and I'm happy I can now add Vaultwarden to it.

The bigger your users x applications number, the bigger the benefit. It make user management easy (e.g., you only have to manage users in one place instead of N)

Same usecase for myself too. One of the biggest advantages for me is that it lets me setup a single and easily tested place for the users to reset passwords from too for when they inevitably forget or lose the post-it note. That, along with me using all the apps and not wanting to have to change 30 passwords for everything when something happens too.

I went a bit more complicated myself with Keycloak instead of Authentik, simply because I knew keycloak a little better but setting up SSO for all the stuff I run has definitely been worth it.

Yep same for me. I actually had been holding off on Vaultwarden precisely because it didn't have sso support. A single sign on is definitely better than the having the family try to remember a different password for every app.
