Very much this. I don't benefit in any way from having a copy of my sensitive data in their cloud, so as a very basic security principle, I don't want them to have it.

And that's just for my personal use. If they drop support for local vaults, I have to stop using it for work, too, because my employer prohibits password managers that store passwords in the cloud. My understanding is that these policies are specifically designed to keep us in compliance for government contracts, so I don't think they're changing.

I agree; and unfortunately I found self-hosted vaults to always be a bit challenging to get right, if I wanted to use my vault on multiple devices. The local-network only sync engine never worked for me, so I ended up using another third-party's servers to sync anyway. I signed up for 1password.com a couple months ago and it's been painless. To each their own!
