    "Updating", huh? What a word choice. I wonder in which direction it's updating!

        @rickscully @marcoarment To be honest, this prompted me to look at some other options and Apple Passwords simply wouldn’t work for me. No option for storing credit cards, software licenses, or notes, and no system for tagging or grouping items make it a non-starter.

        That said, I’m sure it’s a great option for most people that just need to save a few passwords

        @odin @rickscully @marcoarment Bitwarden is a thing. And their free plan is enough for most

            @marcoarment A $12/year increase from $45 to $57 (before 15% sales tax). That’s a small 26% increase (if my maths is correct)

                  @marcoarment They're "right-sizing" the price. There was a discrepancy between what they were getting and what they want to be getting.

                    @marcoarment Very similar to 'updating our privacy policy' or 'updating our subscription terms'. This passive-voice crap really needs to be shot into the sun.

                          @marcoarment remember when they would just call it what it is… raising the price.

                              @jwz @marcoarment I switched to strongbox, which felt like the mac assed mac app that 1password used to be, and has the added bonus of storing everything in the open keepass format so I can use it everywhere.

                                  @marcoarment up, and whilst not a huge for a year, it's not something I can say I support - as it seems to be only targeting their family plans (we didn't get an email for our team account for @bloominbeads)

                                  They're VC funded now, not some tiny indie dev anymore. Honestly, I'm disappointed, plus the 'AI naming' thing.

                                    @marcoarment You’re lucky.
                                    Bitwarden increased the price by 100%!
                                    From 10 to 20.
                                    A year.

                                    @pax0707 @marcoarment their language was even more passive, the email I received simply had the subject "Your Bitwarden Premium renewal is updating", so I almost didn't notice the price increase... the second sentence was "The price is updating to $1.65/month, billed annually". Though it added that "As an existing Bitwarden customer, you will receive a one-time 25% loyalty discount for this year's renewal".

                                    $20/yr seems a bit steep just for U2F key support. $10/yr felt worth it.

                                        @axby @pax0707 @marcoarment If you only use Bitwarden for that feature, yes, that seems like a steep price hike *. A big notepad is cheap, and it might serve you better if you have no interrest in the more advanced bells and features you get with a basic subscription.
                                        Or you could use Keepass or Lastpass. They’d probably pay people to sign up these days.

                                        *I ,apart from using it, have no affiliation with Bitwarden in any way.

                                          @marcoarment I can understand that wording for services that are actually making structural changes. For instance a hosting provider charging by minutes instead of bandwidth.

                                          But just raising the price? Nah.
