4 years agoI’m just echoing the sentiment of everyone above. I’m still using a MacBook Pro from 2018. It works great with 1Password 7, but anything more memory intensive will be an issue. For me, the fact that 1Password was a native app was a huge selling point. It started as a Mac app and should stay that way. I’ll eventually upgrade to an Apple Silicon system. Is Electron running yet natively there? Seems like a step backwards if it isn’t. Keep Linux Electron based but Windows and Apple should be coded for and use standard UI elements. I’ve used 1P7 for Linux and it works but is not “pretty” looking at all. If that is Electron, I’d hate to get that on my Mac.
As much as I hate to say it, any glitchy UI or non-native look would be a huge turnoff. For the first time in over a decade I have actually started looking at competitors. If any offer as good as family vault type sharing as I get now, I’d be considering switching.
