Why is it so monstrously difficult to manage two 1P accounts on the same computer?

Apologies for the delay here. You can find instructions to remove the entirely of 1Password's data from your device here: How to uninstall 1Password
If you and @gmagana are open to it, I'd recommend using a 1Password Family account. You can set up shared vaults and thus manage items on behalf of family members without having to worry about signing in and out of different accounts. I do this for some family members so here are some examples:
- I have a shared vault with my dad. He has his own account and thus his own Private vault, but I set up his app and browser extension to save new items in that shared vault by default so I can help organize/make changes from my own app.
- I also have a shared vault with my grandfather. If he needs something while I'm visiting, I can access the data from the 1Password app on my own phone. Since he doesn't need to add new items and we want to avoid the risk of him making any accidental changes, I set his permissions on that vault to view-only.
When I want to view my own items in isolation, I use a collection to group those vaults separately, this includes my Private vault and the vault I share with my spouse. Similarly, I uncheck my family members' vaults in my browser extension settings since I don't want their information showing up in my autofill suggestions. Here are some related links:
Let me know if you give these a try or have any questions. 😊
