Like many others this feels bad to me. I was previously forced to upgrade to 7 so the Chrome extension worked and as a result purchased (again!) separate Windows and Mac desktop licenses. In trying to navigate the site to find out how to buy a desktop only client I encountered the multiple dark patterns to make this nearly impossible. It is no wonder that “97% of people prefer the subscription” since standalone was basically hidden. I love the product experience 1Password provides, I simply prefer managing my own vault (via Dropbox). Based on feedback here I’m going to evaluate Bitwarden. Sigh.

Please, if you haven't already, fill out this 1Password survey. They are considering self-hosted vaults but want more data on who/how it would be used:

Hopefully they will get the picture.

Thank you so much for posting this link! I had no idea there was an avenue for product features.
