2FA is still available in the free tier, it’s just limited to TOTP and email code based 2FA. The paid teirs unlock additional methods like FIDO2 and yubikey protocols. Even if you don’t use the advanced 2FA methods or any of the other benefits, it’s still good to throw them a little money to keep them running.
No it’s not suspicious. It’s an open source well vetted audited selfhosted password manager. If youve tried vaultwarden or the official image it’s extremely easy to setup meaning a very low barrier for entry.
What KeePass doesn’t do for free is sync across as many devices as you want without issues. For a couple years I was using KeePass + Syncthing, but I kept having sync errors and ended up having to merge databases on a regular basis. Dealing with moving the database around is difficult when you’re regularly creating new accounts and authenticating from four plus devices.
All those defenders of KeePass here in Lemmy makes me really suspicious if everybody has to fit the nerd mould to be accepted. Really feels like shit subteddits tbh.
I’m on the other fence. All of the Keepass shilling is pretty extreme. It’s a local solution, which works sure. However, I want something I can immediately use from a new location without having to reimport everything all the time. There’s far more people astroturfing for Keepass than Bitwarden dude.

I think what OP is talking about is the ability to generate TOTPs, which requires a paid plan.
KeePass does that for free…
All these upvotes for bitwarden seem really suspicious

Visiting the project looks like you need to set up an account with them regardless
No you don’t if you selfhost.
