I did try to switch a year or so ago and got really frustrated. Tried again a week ago and Bitwarden does seem a little better. It helps that it feels like 1Password's app has been getting more bloated over time (though I have no data to support that assertion).

1Password certainly added a ton of new features recently :)

Did you check 1Password developer tools, like SSH-agent server, git commit signing, and CLI? https://developer.1password.com/

Or the new item and file sharing. https://support.1password.com/share-items/

I refuse to use a cloud-based password manager, they will all be hacked eventually. I will continue to use and pay for the standalone 1Password as long as possible, and then be forced to self-host vaultwarden.

Almost two decades without any serious breach does inspire some confidence.

I put them under the same reliability umbrella (maybe even a touch higher) than Fastmail, which is high praise IMO.

I have no interest in those things, they're good examples of what I don't want in my password manager.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound like an ass, they look like very well put together features. They just remind me of when Dropbox decided to start offering document editing. Not what I go there for.

Fair enough, everyone has their own requirements. I'd argue that all modern operating systems have password management already built-in.

We have a lot of 1Password customers with families and team members that require more than a single vault, need an option to recover team/family member access and often have to securely share data with other people, accountants and lawyers. Also, many of developers and admins that want to keep their SSH keys safe.
