Comments on latest beta

Happy Monday morning to you, rctneil! ☀️👋

I see what you mean about these posts getting trickier to write. I think next time around you might as well start a fresh list with your current experiences. We can always scroll up if we want the details on the resolved ones.

I'm excited that you're excited about the collapsible sidebar and indeed you read the tea leaves pretty well that we're experimenting with enabling you to add your categories to your sidebar. Be sure to add your thoughts on the new Exploring sidebar categories thread. 🤗

Regarding your new password generator comment, could you elaborate on your use case please? In general we really don't want to allow generated passwords to be copied or filled without storing them anywhere as it's too easy to forget to save a (potentially incredibly valuable) password. This recently got one of our users where they lost their password to their bitcoin after this exact same situation happened to them. Thankfully roustem gave him the keys to his $25k of crypto so this story had a happy ending, but you can imagine that this solution is not a scalable one. 🙂

We solved this issue in 1Password in your browser by always saving generated passwords to a vault that you don't see on your sidebar. There's a separate Password History view that enables you to find all your passwords that were generated, serving as a nice safety net incase you find yourself in this situation. By the sounds of it you're already in your browser when you're creating your password so I think this will fit into your workflow quite well. And for the sites where you want to save a new login, it will work even better.

Take care,
