I prefer to pay for something as important as a password manager. It's like some people get excited about all-you-can-eat sushi: sorry, but raw fish isn't something I want to go super-cheap with.

But 1password forces you to install the browser extension to do this.

It does, but 1password forces you to use the browser extension in order to manage passkeys.

I still don't trust browser extensions. I'm probably being irrational, but it is hard to find good sec info on how "safe" extensions really are.


If you're copy-pasting passwords from 1password into your browser you're making yourself vulnerable to phishing. The browser extension's autofill will at least check the domain name and prevent that.

Somewhat. Lots of sites log you in via a different domain.

That’s the domain you’d have saved, then. You can also save multiple domains on a credential.

I know about the issue and still experience it. Sometimes these things also change over time. Of course, it still helps to use the browser extension!

That does get me every now and then. “Why has this stopped autofilling…”
