Strongly disagree regarding 1Password, their client is continually improving and it is IMHO by far the best password managing service now, I have tried most of the other ones before it. Really have no issues with their Electron switch, I didn't even notice it, still fast!

Same with me for Electron, I wouldn't know but for the HN comments. They added an SSH agent to their macOS clients a while ago, at least for me that was a pretty big improvement. They also added features for sharing passwords with others who aren't in your 1Password Team/Family/whatever, and that's really slick and useful too. I'm a bit disappointed in their 1password secrets automation thingy since there seems to be no free tier to play with it, but it's good to see them grow into that direction since that may alleviate the pressure to profit squeeze their password manager offering to death.

But I guess you have to keep in mind they are in an ongoing pivot to cloud and that understandably disgruntles those of their customers who have a strong aversion to cloudy products. If you look at 1Password as a standalone app for managing local vaults synced via dropbox, I guess you could argue it's kinda shitty by now and getting worse, and every cloud feature is a net-negative in that view. If I had to guess I'd say most people want a cloud solution these days, but I guess that may be what's behind a lot of the negative sentiment. Or maybe not, but as someone who buys 1Password Family for the cloudy features, has used it a lot at work and doesn't have a single local vault, I'm a very happy customer and I've yet to run into a non-trivial bug with v8.
