Vaultwarden is pretty much the same as anubis. The environment file serves as a config file. In the Linux deployements I manage, we put it in /etc/vaultwarden.conf (and point the systemd EnvironmentFile variable to it). Having it under /var on .Ox looks a bit weird to my eyes, but I will not cry if anubis also uses LOCALSTATEDIR for consistency with vaulwarden in case it's too late to move vaultwarden's default. -- Matthieu Herrb
