The popular alternative is bitwarden-rs, and it's usually chosen because it has a much smaller footprint and is well suited to self-hosting where you only have a handful of users.

> Note: This project was known as Bitwarden_RS and has been renamed to separate itself from the official Bitwarden server in the hopes of avoiding confusion and trademark/branding issues. Please see #1642 for more explanation.
