That’s a reasonable thing to do. But your supply chain could still be compromised, using a different front end increases the entire risk surface. If nothing else there’s less eyeballs looking at your front end. There could be IPC the front end uses to pass messages via other channels. It’s a larger threat profile.
That’s down to you and your threat model. Look at the downside of a breach, and look at the convenience of the browser integration. And make the choice for yourself.
For instance, if I was logging into a top secret military system, I would not use browser integration. That would be outside my threat model
Not to mention copy and paste on many systems is very insecure. On desktop computers any application can copy from that buffer without you being aware of it. On telephones are getting better about letting you know when an app copied the copy and paste buffer. But it’s something you should model
Run Vaultwarden within your LAN and give this application no outgoing network access except to your local Vaultwarden ?

Okay. Would you recommend manually copy & paste and not use the Chrome or Firefox extension for Bitwarden ?
