Security updates yes, but passwords are one of the most stable, least changing-parts of anything I do with a computer. File sync is also well understood and a commodity offering. In 35 years, the only thing that’s changed for me viz logging in is the introduction of TOTPs. I’d rather not have my password manager constantly changing except for security updates. I certainly don’t want to pay a a subscription service for a company to reshuffle the UI every five years.

I’ve switched to KeePassXC and Strongbox on iOS. It’s every bit as good as 1Password was for the last ten years, and I don’t have to worry about the future of the product locking me into crappy “growth” decisions. I’ll be donating a similar subscription fee to the maintainers of KeePassXC that 1Password would ask for.
