Back in March, I wrote about Bitwarden doubling their Premium price — and specifically how they did it. Buried in a feature announcement. Priced in fake...
My biggest worry comes from the way Proton handles Standardnotes. To use that, you have to pay for a yearly subscription to even host your own server.
In the past, I have compared Bitwarden’s model - favorably - against Standardnotes. It seems much fairer to charge users for convenience of a note/password storing service, and not the simple existence of an open-source app.
I did the same as you. I think I’m only 3 months into my bw sub.
My experience so far has been that it’s painless to export import my data, so although I won’t be thrilled if proton takes a cue from them and screws us, another move won’t kill me.
I pay for Proton but still hesitate to move passwords there because I could easily see Proton developing a penchant for sniffing their own farts.
I JUST fucking moved from 1PW to BW and super irritated at the prospect of moving again so soon. Sellouts.

A lot of my friction moving from 1PW to BW was due to TOTP (2fa codes) being stored inside 1PW.
So now that I have those codes in a different service than my password manager, I hope it’s a less painful process as you describe.
