I’m not against the hosted model, but at the moment for me they don’t have enough compelling reasons to use it if you purchased the standalone version. It sounds like they’re trying to get there with X and I wish them luck, but in the meantime I’m a happy standalone user.
- stimur 9y agoI don't think we are. 1Password X is a purely in browser app. It doesn't have local access to your files, it is an extension. The only way for it to get data is from some server outside, i.e. cloud. Don't try to see the malicious intent where it was just practical decision. At the moment this is the only way to get 1Password to work on Linux (except older OPW4 with local sync support under Wine). I personally happy about it. You don't have to be, if you don't use cloud. No one pushes you.
- wool_gather 9y ago> Don't try to see the malicious intent... I think you have replied to the wrong comment? Parent says "I'm not against the hosted model...I wish them luck"
- stimur 9y agoSorry, you're right :)
- stimur 9y agoAlso I see that people for some reason think that this is the only future of our apps. - Standalone apps are not going anywhere. - The original 1Password extension, which is working with standalone app is there too and in active development. 1Password X is one more thing, additional possibility. Not a replacement.
