      If they’re moving away from open source/more monetisation then they’re going to do one of two things.

      1: Make the client incompatible (e.g you’ll need to get hold of and prevent updating of a current client).
      2: DMCA the vaultwarden repo

      If they’re going all-in on a cash grab, they’re not going to make it easy for you to get a free version.

        Don’t forget option 3: someone writes a vaultwarden client independent of the closed-source crap.

        If you can write a server that fully supports the client via the documented API, then you know everything you’d need to do to make a client as well.

        You can’t “dmca” the fork that was created while it was still open source. They could only prevent it from getting future updates (directly from them).
