1Password has been good to me. I did have a strange encounter with their customer support last year; I had asked whether it might be possible to have native support to show when a credential was set up to use Sign In with Apple, or Google sign-in, etc. Their customer service didn't even consider the suggestion, advising me instead that using single sign-on solutions was a security risk. At the time I thought the agent was just confused, but with hindsight I realised it might fit a password manager's agenda to keep people using an email, password and 2FA combo, perhaps with an eye on whatever other solutions 1Password may have in the oven.

and yet, they did either arrive at that same conclusion or did hear you, because it now knows if one uses a Sign in With Google and stores that fact in the Item: https://blog.1password.com/sign-in-with-anything-browser-bet...
Well damn, haha. They just didn't want to have to put my name in the credits then. Thank you :)
