v8 export for import in KeePassXC or something similar using local vaults
@basurerito
Thank you for the reply. 1Password.com memberships are the future of 1Password and you can read some of our founder Dave's thoughts here: What is the future of local/standalone vaults? — 1Password Support Community
In short: 1Password accounts are more secure, more functional, and easier to use than the older standalone vault format.
If you consider increasing the subscription price, then I have to swallow it. That is not only an issue with 1password, but for all other "complete (proprietary) systems" as well.
That is indeed a risk with any service. However, I believe that we've never increased the price of the subscription (and someone can correct me if I'm wrong) so we have a pretty good track record of not randomly increasing prices. Of course, I can't make the promise that the price will never be increased since I don't know what the future will hold.
The beauty of 1Password's ability to export your data is that you can leave anytime you wish with all of your data. You're never locked in and forced to continue using 1Password. We only want you to continue using 1Password if you believe that it's the best tool for your workflow and your life.
Apart from the probably "cleaner" file(s) format, what is the difference between 1pif and 1pux, in terms of "data completeness"?
Once big difference is that 1PIF didn't include Document items. 1PUX is a lossless export format whereas 1PIF was not.
Please let me know if you have any other questions. 😊
