We are indeed using Electron for some elements of the app, but we’re strongly focused on delivering performance as a feature. Using Rust for the heavy lifting has enabled us to do that. Additionally one of the early concerns raised with Electron was that we might lose some of the tight integration with the OS that people have come to love and expect. We made sure that didn’t happen.
Thanks for trying it out. I’m glad to hear it works well for you.

- rcarmo 5y agoCan you comment on the loss of iCloud syncing? That is going to be the reason I leave if it's confirmed.
- bwoodruff 5y agoStandalone vaults (including 3rd party sync) will not be part of 1Password 8. You can read more about this here: https://1password.community/discussion/comment/602340/#Comment_602340 https://1password.community/discussion/comment/602340/#Comme...
- rcarmo 5y agoOK, that's it, I'm going to give Outercorner's Secrets a try - I've been meaning to do that anyway, since I trust iCloud syncing much more than a third party, and don't want to get locked in to using a sub-standard non-native application on my desktop just because your market strategy relies on holding my data hostage while removing key platform features between versions. (full disclosure: I also know the developer personally and have watched as he evolved the product, and since it has comprehensive import/export features I know I can get my data in and out of it safely - and without being beholden to a subscription that adds effectively zero value) It's a shame, really, I've been using 1Password forever and have kept at version 6 precisely because I want to limit my data exposure and have a bloat-free experience. Goodbye, and thank you for all the fish.
