Hi Pany,
I think you're probably right, I vote for changing it to Type=forking as
well.
Though since the article is live we have to wait for someone on the
magazine board to edit it :)
Might take a while since FLOCK is this week and quite a few of the board
members are going

Hi Eric,
Sorry for the delay to reply.
I did another test, on a fresh new installed F30 minimal in VirtualBox,
with dnf updated OS and newest podman installed [0].
Without `Type=forking`, the podman process would exit, see the log [1].
Then I added `Type=forking` into bitwarden.service and restarted it, and
it would run well, see the log [2].
Maybe I did something wrong? Please let me know.
