@daringfireball @gruber I read about the enshittification of 1Password from time to time, but my experience hasn’t borne that out. The new apps, even if electron over rust, are fast. Bugs are getting fixed and experiences are being made smoother on macOS and iOS (and Linux/Windows!) and they support shared vaults for our family.

So I’m genuinely curious what is actually becoming shitty here aside from some prejudice against electron.

@kavehv @daringfireball @gruber My experience with 1Password for both home and office usage has been positive. There isn’t a competitive service that offers the same features I’ve grown accustomed to. I know the Apple Passwords app is good, but it doesn’t meet my needs.

@spacegrass @daringfireball @gruber Same. I even set up my daughter in 1Password and turned off Passwords.app. Frankly, what @marcoarment points out is 100% true here. If the app is a priority for the company, it will be done and done well (see Sonos vs Homepods).

1Password is a priority for…1Password. The apps are smooth, fast, and well-integrated into their target platforms (which include Linux, something Apple doesn't care about). What is actually shitty about them?
