This seems like classic corporate backtracking when their customers spot a terrible, deliberate decision.

That being said, I am happy about it. I got my company to use it and finally got my girlfriend to use it and just recommended it to her brother. Would hate to have to try to find something else

I didn't think that's the case here

However, would you rather that the feedback of users NOT change behavior? I'm not entirely sure what your end game is here, you WANT corporations to ignore and not take action on feedback?

Why do they have to "WANT" that? Ignoring the fact that they literally said they were happy it was changed back, why does that matter to the criticism? If it's true, it's true, and the fact that corporations are the ones in a position to habitually make terrible decisions about FOSS is a big problem. It's valid to point out that it would be good to find a better way.

If anything it sounds like you "WANT" to ignore it.

I don't think so, to be honest. The bitwarden-sdk had been there for a VERY long time and you could always compile without it. Not being able to build a FOSS client wouldn't hurt bitwarden's bottom line too much. Most people use whatever is provided in the app stores (which is compiled with the source available sdk).
