Why self host a password manager? (programming.dev)

I'm going to move away from lastpass because the user experience is pretty fucking shit. I was going to look at 1pass as I use it a lot at work and so know it. However I have heard a lot of praise for BitWarden and VaultWarden on here and so probably going to try them out first.

My questions are to those of you who self-host, firstly: why?

And how do you mitigate the risk of your internet going down at home and blocking your access while away?

BitWarden's paid tier is only $10 a year which I'm happy to pay to support a decent service, but im curious about the benefits of the above. I already run syncthing on a pi so adding a password manager wouldn't need any additional hardware.

I recently added tailscale.

How to set up Vaultwarden with tailscale ? Any pointer ?

I've been using VW for over a year but I'm double NAT'd so I set it up with CF Tunnel with my domain and while I'm confident in my master ps I would prefer TS.

I was lazy and since I don't need it very often I didn't really set up anything besides installing the clients on my devices.

That gives you the possibility to connect to your server via the hostname (definable with tailscale) when you connect your device like Our phone with the TS app. Edit the URL in bit warden and you are done.
