I doubt they care about Mac customers. If they did, they would have avoided ruining the app's UI so that customers don't have a good reason to jump ship at the first opportunity.

They only really care about enterprise customers as is pretty obvious, but they haven’t QUITE made it crappy enough for me to bother switching to keychain entirely.

The new UI is such a downgrade. It took the app from feeling well made to feeling like your average bloaty SaaS app. I’m gonna have to figure out an alternative once 1PW 7 is no longer supported.

  Keychain is… not that bad. It works for almost all passwords/general use cases. It definitely is feature-lite compared to dedicated password managers, but it makes that up in integrations if you’re primarily in the Apple ecosystem.

  For the past year or so I thought I was being silly for feeing the 1P has gotten so clunky. Now I get it. I had no idea they had migrated to Electron, but the app is much shittier. It can’t even remember which window size I’ve set it to, and prefers to reopen in whatever size it wants. (We’re a business customer.)

  I don't mind the UI on Mac so much as weird bugs where the chrome extension doesn't always work and I need to quit and restart. The iPad app UI is far more frustrating to use, mainly because the search function is hidden behind a down scroll now. I'm keeping an eye on Proton at the moment as I use their email and they do have a password manager offering.

    > where the chrome extension doesn't always work and I need to quit and restart In my experience, this happens when there is a new Chrome version, but you haven't updated to it yet. When you quit and restart Chrome, it can update. Next time the extension stops working, check chrome://settings/help.

Yeah 1Password 8 is really bad compared to 7, ignoring how awful electron is for a password manage it doesn't even have basic feature parity like finding and removing duplicates, completely hiding vaults etc
