Ugh. Agilebits left out until the very end that this is only for their hosted solution. No surprise but looks like standalone users are left out in the cold. Again. Much as I like and use 1Password every day, I really really do not like the fact that they moved to a hosted model.
The Standalone version’s support is abysmal. Just yesterday I found out it is not supported on Linux. I’m sorry, but what?
I almost regret purchasing 1Password.
edit: So complaining about lack of support for a major operating system is downvote-worthy now. Cool. Keep it classy, HN.
I have used 1Password for half a decade, but I'm pretty disgusted by agilebits behavior as they continue to shove non-cloud users aside. The amount of customer goodwill they've burned is astounding. I think it's time to start looking elsewhere for a password manager solution.

A lot of commercial software is not supported on Linux. The vast majority of it, even.
At one point I ran the legacy Windows version under Wine, which even worked with the Chrome extension. Had to disable some extension security policy in Chrome though.

I’m not against the hosted model, but at the moment for me they don’t have enough compelling reasons to use it if you purchased the standalone version. It sounds like they’re trying to get there with X and I wish them luck, but in the meantime I’m a happy standalone user.

Same here. I bought 1Password (multiple times) and have it on my MBP, iPhone, and iPad and got the girlfriend using it on all of her devices too. Matter of fact, I switched to 1Password the very same day that LogMeIn bought out LastPass. I am not happy about them switching to a subscription model and pushing their hosted product and (in this case) making it a requirement. Yes, the standalone version is still around.…
Supposedly, 1Password 7 for Windows will bring back standalone vaults to Windows. Since the hosted solution brings them the bulk of their revenue (I'm guessing), it made sense to me for them to focus on the Windows upgrade with hosted accounts and I forgave them for it as long as 1Password 4 continued to work. I really hope that same attitude continues on with later versions of 1Password X. Starting out with accounts makes sense so long as they add standalone support later. I'm a patient person and beggars can't be choosers.
Former LastPass employee here. Looks to me like 1Password is going full LastPass. First fully hosted passwords. Now support for extension only (which is way worse security wise).
SaaS margins and recurring revenue is better, and I guess their previous model was killing 1Password.

It never has been supported on Linux. Why is that suddenly a surprise to you?
In all seriousness though, Lastpass is not a particularly good looking piece of software, and in small ways that does impact my ability to use it efficiently. It generally looks like 1Password is much better on this front, although I still use Lastpass because it's ~50% cheaper.
Ouch! I just switched to Firefox 57 and I can't use this new feature! Shouldn't the WebExtension be portable across both browsers with minimal work with Firefox 57?
