More than two years since this feature was requested, nine months since I last added my comment. Still nothing. Frankly, it’s deeply disappointing. This should have been a minor fix.
This isn’t about assuming i know more about software development than your team. I know that I don’t. But the UI element and the functionality to switch vaults already exist within the extension. The only missing piece was persisting the selected vault between clicking on the extension. A single stored state. That’s it. People here are asking for a view change.
I’m done making excuses for Bitwarden. I’m moving to 1Password. They offer superior features and demonstrably more responsive development. After six and a half years, it’s time to move on. I hope Bitwarden eventually rediscovers what users like me value.
EDIT: In case anyone is wondering, yes, 1Password lets you change the default organization in the Chrome extension.
