I'm in no way affiliated with them, but as a very happy user I can recommend you to try BitWarden [0] instead of 1Password. It doesn't have the bug you have described, nor it shows passwords in plain text by default (you can also copy a hidden password to clipboard - useful when you share a screen with someone).

Does 1Password show the password in plain text by default somewhere? I haven't noticed.

  You can make them appear with View>Conceal passwords, but I'm fairly sure it hides them by default.

    That's what I think too

  No, passwords are concealed by default. Options include: Copy, Reveal, Large Type, Type in window >

Been using Bitwarden ever since LastPass imploded themselves with their idiotic policy of no Destkop + Mobile for free users. Very happy with Bitwarden. Has a self-hosting option, too, which I like. been debating setting up a self-hosted server here at home for storing my passwords.

  I was actually looking for a password manager around the time LastPass introduced that policy. I was considering it but when I saw that I was like, "Okay, looks like LastPass is off the table." I ended up going with Bitwarden and I am very happy with it. Actually, 4 days ago was my official one-year anniversary with them!

What if https://bitwarden.com/ https://bitwarden.com/ gets hacked? Please don't say self-host cause that's not an option for most regular people. At least with KeePassX/KeePassXC you can use that own its own without an online account. The fact that I have to create an account and an online vault with a master password is the biggest turnoff for me. https://vault.bitwarden.com/#/register https://vault.bitwarden.com/#/register

  > What if https://bitwarden.com/ https://bitwarden.com/ gets hacked They only store the encrypted vaults, which is useless without your master password. So even if it is hacked, the only thing the hackers get is an encrypted blob. > you can use that own its own without an online account. That is because KeePassX/KeePassXC is an offline app that reads a database (.kdbx file) you have on your computer. Bitwarden is for people who want to use their password manager on multiple devices. So an account is necessary. How do you use Keepass across multiple devices. Please don't say Syncthing cause that's not an option for most regular people. And if you use something like Dropbox, what if https://dropbox.com https://dropbox.com gets hacked? > The fact that I have to create an account This is for authentication (needed it for syncing it across multiple devices).

    i am fully aware i wear tin foil, but my passwords will never be online. simply collecting them makes them a potentially valuable target, and even though encrypted, it cam be cracked with enough time and money. edit: KeepassXC user here too.

      I would assume that the most likely issue you would face is malware running on your own computer that captures the master key or sends passwords back to an attacker. Not someone gaining access to the encrypted password vault and then cracking it - unless you have a very week key.
