![]() ![]() I'm only holding out for those, so I'm stuck on Sierra until this Mac dies or I upgrade. I'm looking at getting the next MBP that comes out, regardless. ![]() Oh, I know hence the other posts I've made in this thread regarding 1Password 7. ![]() In fact they have been doing so for that past 15 years or so. Especially 1password that does have the resources to build native apps. If Electron app is so bad, why do they keep using it? I don't understand. EnPass is the closest thing to 1Password. I already mentioned the ones earlier on for you. It could work but if I was going to move to a password manager I might as well move to a crossplatform one. As for the development team I am not sure how large it is but I think its more than 1 man. I do not know why everyone is considering everything except them. I still didn't read the article, but maybe this is for super secure areas like the army but 10s of millions of people are using many password manger plugins for many years and no one is complaining?!ĮnPass does all of that. I was even ok with them hiding the license option. They are twisting the arms of the consumer. Each other option had caveat so they felt brave enough to push the subscription model. I am really thinking 1Password is truly evil, they knew there was no exactly replcement for their app. I think Roboform does not support local vaults, why so many rely on the cloud even for free tiers? Is having a local vault that difficult to do?īitwarden is no longer an option for me, I am not setting up a server just to sync passwords. That would have made things much easier to maintain, plus use less resources than Electron would. If they did, then it's the same codebase all around, meaning that there shouldn't have been a problem if AgileBits standardized on a given language/library base, and compiled 1Password against that for each environment they would be running. It's obvious that they compiled it dynamically for Linux and statically for MacOS, so it has me wondering if they also compiled it statically for Windows. I wonder if there is a free IDE available for Windows, so I can see how the Enpass binary there is compiled. Now they are just going that way full stop, leaving out anything native. When AB started to port 1Password to being web based, they were able to get into that market, then focus on cross platform ability. Those users were going straight to Lastpass and Keepass as they had no other option. Having a subscription password manager is not a compromise I can make.They realized that they were missing out on a huge market, which was all of the Windows users. ![]() There are alternatives that, while possibly not as good/polished, will allow me to continue to manage the password storage the way that I currently do and will continue to work, as is, for as long as I choose to use the software. I love 1Password, but I hate their move towards being a service. But every version I purchase should work in perpetuity and should come with bug fixes, especially if vulnerabilities in the product are found. I'm perfectly happy to continue paying for major releases and will always upgrade provided the added features are compelling. The possibility that a company will cease operations and the software will cease to function makes this kind of pricing a non-starter for something as crucial as password management. Moreover, subscription pricing is a no-go for many of us. There are many of us that consider managing the storage of our vaults as a fundamental safety feature of a password manager and will never cede control over that function to the company behind our password manager. I think 1Password folks need to hear that for a lot of customers, it will never be the case. ![]()
