Not really. Do you think the ssh client machine is easier to secure than the ssh server? (It isn't.)
It objectively is since I never transmit the private key bits to the server. Passwords usually require the whole secret be blasted about the Internet (albeit encapsulated in TLS, usually).
A huge problematic deficiency of 1Password is that it lacks literal multi-line text field types. The items in its database let you define custom fields for them, but there is no literal multi line text field. There's a "File" type, but you can't simply define fields with multi-line text values. However, every item has exactly one built-in "notes" field, but that's actually styled markdown text. And you only get one.…

Ummm, no. No need for even more in-between software prompting for passwords. I’m sticking with certificate+publickey SSH

Could you share a little bit about what you'd want to use this for? (I'm part of the 1Password design team)
SSH keys have both a private and a public file. The private file is multi-line text. I don't like putting the private key in the notes field, because its name is still "notes" (but I'd prefer the label be the key's file name), it's actually markdown formatted text, not literal text, and what if I still want to write a note, but I've already used the notes field for the key? HTTPS certificates including multiple certi…
The 'only' downside is the comparatively high increase in database size for the hoster.

Then why not file attachments? You may want to store a JPEG there too, for some reason.

Anyone with a system that is running full of Electron apps knows how awful it adds up and how slow they are. Sure just 1 app makes hardly a difference. But I have 16GB of RAM and it gets awfully slow very fast with all that electron mess.
I use 5-7 Electron apps on a daily basis and not even once have I had anything resembling memory issues. Nothing gets slow, nothing becomes unusable.

I agree. They disabled 1Password for Firefox on iOS and force users to use safari with 1Password extension. Before you could access it through share menu and get forms filled out, but they removed that feature. Reached out to support regarding that and their answer was just to use safari.
I use iOS, Firefox and 1Password to fill out passwords regularly. I just logged out of HN and back in on my iPhone just to test. Is there certain versions that this affected?
[UPDATE] although reading the replies, it looks like that appears to work. Can’t confirm as don’t use Firefox on iOS.

Please elaborate to those of us who have actually experienced the “swap swamp” within the last year, in the 2020s, and who have enough systems knowledge to properly instrument this stuff. Are you gaslighting us?
