| I mean, I agree with the principle of your argument, I'm not really one to care _too_ much about specialised programs like this being closed source, especially if they have well defined migration paths and so on. However, this has been _years_, 8 or 9 by my quick check on the App Store. First there was the "agilekeychain" and the python libraries (blimey) to read from it, so I could kinda do my thing on linux, but then it was deprecated and they spent 18months trying to create a CLI variant that on arrival basically never worked. Then they pushed a subscription model which was rather expensive for the functionality too, and after paying for new versions a few times I felt a bit annoyed, and I still could not access my passwords from Linux anyway.. Then they pushed really hard for their own hosted sync (for new vaults at the very least); And without dropbox I couldn't even sync to linux. I'm not sure if they went back on that. Eitherway, the problem is not that it isn't open source per-say. The problem is that it's an incredibly closed ecosystem as it exists today, and an expensive one- maybe you're better off looking at equivalently featured, free, and more open options... of which there are many. |
