I was trying out a bunch of different similar products, I was not going to set up a build environment just to test software. I immediately disqualified anything that required I build it from source.
Of the ones that didn't, very few had working install documentation and I wasn't going to fix it for them just to try out their product. I did open issues on their trackers about it for them, not that they cared since nothing has been done.
Bitwarden_rs was the one that had working install documentation that didn't require a build environment. It met our requirements in testing, so I deployed it to production.
Yes but coming from a go or rust neophyte to trusting that you've installed correctly from source is probably a higher bar than knowing that you've run a container correctly.
