Currently WEBSOCKET_ENABLED defaults to false, which causes the inability to log into BitWarden apps (iOS & Android). The only thing I saw in the wiki about this ENV_VAR was related to getting notifications wiki. In fact the wiki specifically mentions how it doesn't affect mobile because of push notifications.

Proposing the default value be changed to true because neither iOS nor Android apps can log in without WEBSOCKET_ENABLED=true env var and this seems like a reasonable baseline setting.

*Originally created by @JohnnyRacket on 2/21/2023* Currently `WEBSOCKET_ENABLED` defaults to `false`, which causes the inability to log into BitWarden apps (iOS & Android). The only thing I saw in the wiki about this ENV_VAR was related to getting notifications [wiki](https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/wiki/Enabling-WebSocket-notifications). In fact the wiki specifically mentions how it doesn't affect mobile because of push notifications. Proposing the default value be changed to `true` because neither iOS nor Android apps can log in without `WEBSOCKET_ENABLED=true` env var and this seems like a reasonable baseline setting.
