I don’t see myself switching from 1password simply because I don’t think Apple passwords autofill will work natively with non-safari browsers or Linux, both of which I also use. Also, I find the handy 1password mini source pretty convenient.
"Chrome isn't just an App, it's a password provider. We're not throwing that away for Apple."
I don't think that was anyone's intention. Just to support filling passwords from other sources. But he locked into a single use case that was a straw man. "I can understand how some users might want that. That's not a priority for us."
I keep family members' social security numbers, security questions and answers, passport numbers, etc in there, and I don't want to split that data between a passwords app & secure notes.

So AIUI no Linux? (vested interest as that would be my use case)
> However, it’s a bit annoying since you need to authenticate each new browser session with MFA
Well I'd be annoyed if iCloud-stored passwords weren't protected by MFA.
Tangent: I wish the EU would crack down on behemoths that borderline on being utility providers to publish protocol docs on grounds of:
a) auditability
b) interoperability
One can dream...
