I am using Bitwarden on my smartphone. I want to use it on CachyOS.

Bitwarden Officially supports Flatpak, Snap, Appimage, .deb, .rpm.

I don't like Flatpak because for every single update, I also have to update Gnome Locale x2, KDE Locale x2 (at least 2 GBs)

Appimage is fine but I have to manually update.

Then, I looked on CachyOS Repo. There is a Bitwarden. Probably built over Arch Extra repos ?

Usually, I just install from CachyOS repo. But, Since I am downloading Bitwarden ( password manager ), I am bit skeptical. Whether this is recommended?

Can anybody help me?

are you talking like the bitwarden-cli? yeah that's in the arch repos. other than that you'd just install the extension on whatever browser you use.

    Looking for GUI. Want to autofill. Desktop app cannot do that?

    not yet, desktop app isn't integrated into the system secrets and i don't know if they have plans to ever support that. the browser plugins are the closest you can get to autofill on linux atm

    no. either you have to use the CLI or the browser extension. If you use qutebrowser there's a script that will tie into the bitwarden-cli and that would autofill for you. if you have multiple logins for something then it just opens dmenu or rofi or whatever you use and you can select your login from there.

    bitwarden CLI does integrate with some other tools. Almost every launcher, ulauncher, rofi, elephant, has a bitwarden cli plugin that integrates with bitwarden cli
