Try building a password manager that doesn’t sync and let me know how sales go. :)
> Cloud password systems are like running all your security-sensitive code in an Electron app - an impossibly large attack surface with many significant flaws in some of your most-sensitive use. It doesn't make sense if you care about security at all. At least extensions are moderately well sandboxed compared to websites (since it'd be trivial to ship new javascript from their site).
You are correct in that the web browser is a very hostile environment. We're working to minimize what tasks need a web browser, and have already got it such that the entire sign-up flow can be completed in-app at least on iOS.
