1Password 8 Electron app!

Hi @camsoft!

Thank you for the feedback! Please see https://1password.community/discussion/comment/606596/#Comment_606596 for some details on the choice :+1:

I've been extremely pleased with 1Pasword so far. One of the best apps and services I have. I trust it with my sensitive info and use it on multiple platforms and I'll give version 8 a try, but if the experience is degraded on the Mac I will not hesitate to cancel my family subscription and stop recommending 1Pasword to others. Just wanted to state it here so people in charge make the right decision if they happen to be exposed to what users are saying. I know about the software business and there is always people that resist change, but ultimately the best user experience prevails.

Electron is garbage. If I wanted to use the web I would use the web. If you get rid of native apps I will be leaving 1password.

The resource usage of the Electron version on my MacBook Pro 16 is too high. The fans ramp up almost as soon as I start the app continue until 1Password is completely closed. My workload is too sensitive to this high resource usage for me to continue using this Electron version.

I urge you to reconsider the decision to switch from SwiftUI to Electron for the macOS version.

I would also love to see a SwiftUI app or the continuation of 1Password7. Perhaps it is possible to run the iOS swift app on macOS?

One thing maybe: Can the menu-bar app (that I use 99% of the time) be made native so I don't have the memory hungry electron monster running on my system? I think - despite electron apps never feel good - that could make me stay with 1Password (though not happy).
