I love 1P and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone. But... They are cagey around this fact. They are not just trying to remove criticisms of the fact that 1Password 8 is based on Electron, they are actually trying to gaslight. Whenever you mention that 1P8 is backed by Electron (I myself am very neutral towards that fact), they will quickly correct you and tell you it's backed by Rust instead. For whatever reason, they are choosing not to just own the truth. This is a real shame because new 1Password 8 is really good, and I recommend it.

> This is a real shame because new 1Password 8 is really good, and I recommend it. This is subjective. For me I feel everything is a bit more clunky, especially when using the standalone extensions. I have it constantly that the extension doesn’t unlock, the desktop version not showing up when I hit the global shortcut, rendering delays and and and Been using 8 since the pre release to give it a chance but much much prefer 7. I never had this many problems with 1Password and I’m a loyal user since they very early versions 7 was a perfect product that worked flawlessly, 8 is an ok product that does its job. Can’t say I like AgileBits though, too much shady behavior: the subscription migration (hiding one time purchase licenses completely), removing standalone vaults, showing ads within the app, and now this crap

Yep. Somebody asked on Reddit the other day what happened to the Apple Watch app with 1P 8 for iOS and the lead guy responded with: > FYI, Support for Apple Watch was not dropped. The old Apple Watch app could not be included in 1Password for compatibility reasons. We are still exploring how we can include an Apple Watch app in 1Password 8. So the Apple Watch app is no longer included, but support wasn't dropped?? I don't understand why they cannot just tell the truth about things. Why do they seem to be doing so many things that erode trust when their entire business is based around it?

  If the server is down for maintenance and patches that doesn't mean the server is gone forever, you know that right?

    This is much more like migrating to a new server without the new server to migrate to, yes the old serve is gone forever.

      But the service isn't. It's going to come back online.

    In this scenario, the server would have already been shut down for maintenance but the company would still be debating whether to hire someone for actually doing the maintenance.
