Additionally, 1Password makes the extra effort to never even send the URLs of your accounts to their servers. Even with their Watchtower service, which notifies you of breached accounts and websites that support 2-factor authentication, your passwords and website URLs are never sent to 1Password servers.

They still require that your vault be hosted by them though. Terrible policy.

I had been a very happy customer for years before they started moving to that policy. It's what finally made me set up a vaultwarden instance and migrate all my stuff over.

I didn't like the move to a subscription model, but I'd have sucked that up if I could've continued to bring my own sync.

My exact situation as well. I moved from 1P7 to Bitwarden, along with my entire company.

*for some.

For those of us that have been using it for long enough, we can still use the "classic" version stuck at v7, but it means being able to self host. no monthly SaaS fees.

From what I can tell, v7 is Intel-only. That means when Apple sunsets Rosetta 2, it’s not going to work anymore. I’ll need to switch to something else before then, but hate Electron, and all the other options seem to use it (and now 1Password does, too).

From what I can tell, 1Password 7 runs native on Apple Silicon.

"file /Applications/1Password\ 7.app/Contents/MacOS/1Password\ 7" says "Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64 - Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64] [arm64]"

Activity Monitor says that all 1Password things are of Kind "Apple" (not "Intel").

That's a good catch. I'm still on a MacTel MBP, so this is not something I had ever considered. That's going to be just one more reason I'll keep the current laptop powered up on a shelf in the closet if/when I upgrade to a newer computer.

Yup. Still pissed that 1Password removed the standalone option.

The standalone option is called KeePassXC; it's a perfect password-manager man.

Not a single other tool is better than it. /HappyCustomer.
