And "Aside from the aforementioned technical details, Bitwarden is (and has always been) one of the subjectively worst applications on my phones and my desktop in terms of user interface. "
Really!!? How many apps has this person used?
Of course the price between 1pass and Bitwarden reflects why 1pass is so much better. And you don't really realise how clunky BitWarden is if it's all you use, until you also have to use some other password manager.
To each their own (bugs).
Not to mention the absolutely garbage performance of the Windows desktop app.
Never mind that 'fill' is 100x more common as an action. So why on earth is that not the default? It is indeed an unfathomably stupid UI decision, beyond what I regularly see in other apps that I use.
I still hate it to this day, and find it incredibly clunky. In fact that alone is kind of making me want to give in and just use Apple.
To be clear I don't even think I'm talking about taste here, although people did complain about that. I can't think of any good reason that 'fill' is not the default action on an app/extension whose core purpose is to fill things.
$10/year seems pretty fair to avoid all that.
The clients are fine, could be smoother, but I've internalised the quirks by now.
