Is it finally time to move from 7 to 8?

I miss a ton of v7 functionality, and if it weren’t for particular key features in v8, I would have stayed back. For me, these keep me on v8:
* autofill support on iOS / integrated 2FA/passkey setup
* passkey support across platforms
* saving login-with associations (for the rest of the family, I don’t care for it)
And finally, probably the biggest reason :)
* Employer (and my paranoia) requires us to use supported software to save passwords.
My take: the ship has sailed on v7, and 1P has made it clear it is not going back. The electron app has weird browser like behavior sometimes that is non intuitive on a Mac too. If you can’t bear the regressions in v8 (and there are still a few mildly annoying ones as well as some remaining upsetting ones that could accidentally result in data corruption) then probably best to look into migrating elsewhere. For my personal use I’m already using bitwarden and my family will stay with 1P for as long as my employer sponsors the membership. For that reason, nobody in the family sets up passkeys to avoid the platform lock in
