Support for Orion Browser

If the 1P team ever actually delivers on this we’re gonna need a blog post to explain what took so long and why approving a new browser won’t be a problem going forward.

Even if it makes you look bad, it means a lot when you own up to your shortcomings.

+1, what's going on here?

I started this thread 18 months ago, and despite 11 pages of user requests, there's been no progress or no communication on this. This is truly disappointing.

I started using 1Password in 2005 (pre version 1.0), and for the first time, I'm starting to look at alternatives. What's going on over there!?

Another +1 from me here

I greatly appreciate trying to keep 1Password very secure but this hardly seems like a good trade-off to me. If this were 2002 Firefox would be dead in the water because of gatekeeping like this.

Thanks for making a great product and I hope you reconsider.

One more +1 for support for Orion.

11 pages worth of requests; I would have thought this would have been done long ago.

The 1Password team gave up caring about their users as soon as they got that VC money and have now completely tipped over into being actively user-hostile.

It seems like 1P’s team has given up on even trying to appear like they care, despite this being one of the most active threads in the community with daily comments now. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Time to switch.

+1. 1Password takes role of bad gatekeeper here that turns into bottleneck for all newcoming browsers and slow down their attempts to beat monopoly of chromium-based ones. You need to either automate audit process and process all queue of newcoming apple/microsoft signed browsers or completely revoke browser sign checking in 1Password if you are unable to act quickly here.

For years, I've seen various developers, especially indies, complain about Apple because of their slow and unclear app review process. Now 1Password has become an Apple itself.

Extremely disappointing how AgileBits doesn't even care about their users anymore. They removed their one-time subscription and yet some users still didn't give up if that meant that they'd provide a better service than before, but it's the complete opposite. It's still beyond understanding how they white-listed Arc within 15 days after it's release, even when it's not even available to the public and is behind a long waitlist. And they couldn't white-list Orion, claiming it as a niche browser when it's been more than 1 year the community has been asking them for it.

Shouting out another +1 for Orion. There's hardly a thing I can add that hasn't been said multiple times over. I feel like an echo chamber here but I'm also a family plan user for years, 1Password since 2009!, and converted my entire marketing agency over to using 1Password 2 years ago.

As a web developer I know intimately the pain of supporting multiple browsers/devices and can only imagine the depths of scrutiny required when you have such high security stakes at play – this is why I have entrusted Agile Bits to this task for going on 14 years.

This issue is now a year on, and I appreciate there's finally a plan in place to avoid this 'popcorn-style' approval process for new browsers, but this point has me seriously questioning my faith, loyalty and patience:

The unexplained discrepancy between support for Arc which I'm on private beta and lack thereof for Orion which I so badly want to adopt for personal usage – for the very same reasons I choose 1Password!
1. serious attention to privacy and security
2. an elegance in design (just putting aside any and all grievances with 1P8).

Please give the loyal customer base here an official and plausible explanation. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
