Trying to decide if I should: 

1) stick with 1Password, which I’ve used for years with little to no issues, but which costs me money I don’t really need to spend considering 2&3 below

2) switch to ProtonPass which is included with my Proton subscription and features a nice email aliasing feature built in. 

3) switch to Apple Passwords since I use Apple products pretty much exclusively, it would cost nothing, and would probably be fairly seamless in terms of UX

Thoughts? Things I’ve overlooked? Pros/cons? All are very welcome 🙏

A doodler and computerer. I like permissive/permissionless open source, smart contracts, p2p systems, room-scale VR, and NixOS.

Is that free? I wasn’t looking to pay for a third option. Down to hear why though

3) I don't think there is virtue in furthering your lockin to Apple? Seems harmful, if anything.
2) I don't have strong feelings here, it's probably a fine option but somewhat less mature.
1) 1Password is a good platform-agnostic option and they're based out of my hometown so I'm obligated to bias towards it.
0) Bitwarden is the best option. It's fully open source, including the backend, with third party implementations that you can host yourself. Its usability is very competitive with other options, and it's often one of the earliest to take advantage of new mobile features.

Bitwarden is basically the Keepass (OSS darling but not very usable) of 1Password (highly usable but proprietary), if that makes sense. Also they've been around for a comparatively long time and have a great reputation. I've personally read some of the code a few years back and was pleased with how it works.

But yes there's a free tier, and paid tiers, they're all very reasonable.

Nice. Loved your breakdown. On the OSS subject. It’s my understanding that ProtonPass is also open source. Any idea if that’s true and to what degree? If you look into it at all let me know how it compares to Bitwarden 😊

I believe the ProtonPass clients are open source, but the server is not (afaik), and there's no third party implementations (afaik). Tbf it's very new, just released a year ago. BitWarden has been around since 2016 (originally on an OSS grant from MSFT).
