> There was no 1Password to LastPass importer at the time I wrote that

The details were hazy, but in 2016, there was a way to export your passwords from LastPass and import them into 1Password, though I don't think there was a way to do so on windows (which I believe is what your importer addresses).

After LastPass vulnerability in July 2016, I switched to 1Password.

Password managers generally use CSV, avoiding vendor lock-in. However, back when Lastpass doubled their subscription cost (yes, doubled, literally) I switched to Bitwarden. At that point, there was some issue with exporting passwords with a certain character (IIRC it was ; or #). I ended up changing the few passwords which quit working.

As for OP, my take is you clicked a bad link triggering a zero day vulnerability in your browser, or perhaps you logged in on Lastpass via a VPN or Tor? Its pure speculation though.

There is, I just did it recently. It's an unncrypted copy paste dump from lastpass into 1password

This was in reference to the OP not having an option in 2017 to import to 1pass.

If I recall, I had to sign up for LastPass premium to pull my passwords to my phone, and then use keychain to import them to 1pass.

I don't think that solution would work for Windows users back in 2016.
