Pass should be fully open-sourced, including the server component, in the event of Proton shutting down
A pledge to open source in the event of a shutdown would allow us to keep using the product that we have come to love, self-host it, and continue to develop it publicly, ensuring the long-term success of one of the greatest password managers, beyond any possible corporate circumstances.
At that point, financials and intellectual property are irrelevant and open-sourcing would be for the greater good of the security conscious community.

A shutdown open-source pledge for Pass, including its server component, would provide valuable continuity for users who depend on the product for secure password management. If Proton ever discontinued the service, releasing the source code could allow the community to self-host, maintain, audit, and continue developing the software rather than losing access to an established security tool. This kind of commitment could also provide greater confidence about long-term accessibility and community stewardship.

Agreed. BitWarden has this feature and is very often mentioned as an advantage in comparisons of top password managers.
