Eh. I used to use 1Password long ago, when it was still a "normal" app (one-time payment, not trying to become a unicorn). It was easy for me to switch password managers (my needs are modest, and I generally like to break my app habits once in a while). My journey included (1) self-written manager; (2) LastPass; (3) pass CLI, and (4) Bitwarden (free tier).
I'm now a happy Bitwarden user. It's ugly, and I'm a UX designer, but it's the least worst! (to me)
- Tier2Capital 5y agoShout out to Strongbox if you're an apple user. It supports .kdbx across apple devices with a 10/10 UI
- rekoil 5y agoTook a peek, looks really nice, might have to give it a spin! Are there any solutions for .kdbx files on Windows that have a nice UI? My memories of KeePass are not great.

- u2077 5y ago+ 1 for strongbox and keepassXC
- Tier2Capital 5y agoThe best combo
- TameAntelope 5y ago1Password is vastly superior to Bitwarden from a UX perspective, and considering that's literally the only reason I have a password manager, that is, by far, the most important thing. If you think "security" is the reason you have a password manager, how come all of your accounts are tied to your email address? If you just wanted security, there are, by far, more secure tools and practices you could employ than Bitwarden (among them keeping a notebook of passwords on your person at all times). Your comment reads, to me, as a signaling effort. "I'm aware of bad corporations and I don't support them!" is less strong of a signal than you may think.
- sebmellen 5y agoI implemented 1Password at my company for the enterprise features, but I use Bitwarden personally. I prefer the Bitwarden UI/UX significantly.
- somehnguy 5y agoIt's funny how subjective this stuff is. After using BitWarden for a while I switched to 1Password and greatly prefer the 1Password UI. BitWarden has too much in common with Lastpass, and I hate Lastpass' UI.
- unethical_ban 5y agoKeepass + GDrive/iCloud is going to be the recommendation I provide my friends and solo business owners in an upcoming presentation. The file itself is under your control, apps are cross platform and desktop, and it is pretty intuitive. That plus either 2fas (allowing for local token backup) or Authy (encrypted cloud backup) of MFA, and I won't hear about Instagrams getting pwned again.
