Bitwarden new Argon2id KDF

Bitwarden has now deployed Argon2id KDF, is it recommended to switch from PBKDF2?

Argon2id is more secure than PBKDF2.

Hey all, please wait until all of the Bitwarden clients you are using are updated to 2023.2.0 before making any changes, if you’ve already done this and are locked out, you can revert settings in the web vault to restore access.

Please also keep in mind that the best account protection is a strong/unique master password + 2FA.
