@jerry fwiw I found it easy to migrate passwords from 1Password when my work initiated a password manager mandate with LastPass as their chosen vendor. It took like 5 minutes to copy over the logins and stuff I needed out of there.

1Password rules though I think you should keep it.

@jerry

I have been using Bitwarden for a while. I am happy with it.

@jerry you might be deluged with alternative suggestions, but here's another one: When I found that my mother-in-law was unable & unwilling to deal with sundry aspects of 1Password, I migrated all her security tokens to open-source (sundry copyleft and other licenses), cross-platform competitor codebase KeePassXC, which has a presence in MS-Windows, MacOS, and Linux spaces.

It's C++, reasonably well maintained, and lacking in certain 1Password enhancements such as integration with The Clown (TM, jwz). You might wish to give it a spin.

(An argument can be made, and has been, for a variant compiled with bells and whistles omitted. https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/973782/3718b3d56afa4479/ )

@jerry

I personally use Bitwarden but I'm sure 1Password is a good option.

I did look at EnPass briefly but Bitwarsen seemed to be a better option, whixhnalwo supports Passkeys if that's something you need.

@jerry have you seen this information?

@jerry Paying for 1Password and paying for Bitwarden is basically about the same - both seem broadly equivalent these days.

If you value the familiarity, stick with 1P.

OTOH, Bitwarden can be self-hosted ... and you do know a fair bit about that topic. And it has just released a secrets manager, so ... you can use it for real work as well as for personal access.

@jerry if you're happy with it.

I like and use pass. But it's a very nerdy way to save passwords. But it's free and open source.

@jerry

I put in a vote for KeePassXC

@jerry I have not read your numerous responses to this.

I have investigated this myself each of the past two years, as I really don’t like some of the business decisions 1Password is making.

Bottom line: the gap may be closing, but 1Password is still the best out there.

@jerry I concurrently use 1Password Family, Bitwarden (free) and Proton Pass (Proton Unlimited) on multiple platforms with other users. In your situation, i.e. with secrets already in your "complimentary" 1Password Family account (which I presume you use for a "family"), I'd keep it because it's the best at everything except being fully open source.

> If you leave your business account or are removed from it, your family account will be unlinked from it, and it will enter into a complimentary trial period. You can add a payment method to start a 1Password Families subscription.

If you already pay for Proton, then consider switching to Proton Pass. It's not near to feature parity with 1Password, but is good, improving rapidly and you're already paying for it.

Bitwarden is very close to 1Password in features, but note that the free tier does not include TOTP or Passkeys, rendering it next to useless as a single secrets store, but excellent as a free backup for your vaults. The lowest paid tier adds them at a very reasonable cost and other tiers are priced competitively.

@jerry if you want one more data point :

I've used Bitwarden and 1Password extensively, both are great, but there are a few featureset differences that may help you decide switching or not.

- 1Password's UX is generally more polished, which is especially handy if you have a non-tech-savvy family
- 1Password is good at automatically detecting TOTP setup qr-codes on the page
1/n

@jerry I root for @bitwarden

It does the job and has a solid self-hosted version.
