you should simply back it up. What's the point here?
Yup.
I pay for Bitwarden premium. I periodically export my database manually. I know others use the CLI to do automated exports.
I save the unencrypted JSON files into a Veracrypt container.
yeah, so host a vaultwarden, back it up and you will be happy!
I suggest you don't save unencrypted stuff there is no reason to do so so go and learn about the thing if you want!
If it's encrypted during the export you can only reimport it back into Bitwarden. If Bitwarden were to disappear I'd like to know my exports can be used to import into other password databases.
you've kept server keys backupped in a second location, which makes your backups very secure. During recovery you restore vaultwarden then you export your beloved plaintext thing and you reimport somewhere else. It's pretty obvious none of these tools would let you backup plaintext shit and it's a feature man :)
