Hello!

Proton Pass has piqued my interest. Currently, my family uses 1Password. Any 1Password converts in the community? If you are, what were Pass' pros that won you over? Any cons that you'd suggest a person weighing a switch from 1Password keep in mind?

Let's discuss! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing your point of view and insight. What's your opinion on 1Password's bloat? Do you think it is? Pass appears to have a much more pared down set of features--at least for now. Any specific features from 1Password you miss, like passport ready templates or software licenses? I'm sure those can be duplicated in Pass by using notes.

tbh I just worked around it (like e.g. with Notes or with uploading the files to drive and just have a link in my Pass to it). I'm pretty happy with Pass, even though it misses some features (of which some will be added in the future for sure). Since I was using other Proton Apps before already it was kind of a no-brainer for me and once I got used to (and accepted that I might be kind of an early adopter) I never looked back.
