Well, it's a Chrome extension. For some people (including yours truly), it's a deal breaker. I would suggest `password-store`[0] if you don't need to share your vault with anyone.

Actually, pass has great support for teams. Dropping one or more GPG keys in ".gpg-id" will encrypt the passwords for the various identities. This works globally or per sub-folder.

I use dedicated subkeys for work and mobile so that I don't have to share my main key, or indeed every password with every device.

Or any other devices? Or even have rudimentary browser integration? How is this an alternative?

Please check their website. You have extensions for Firefox, applications for Android, etc... It is an alternative, albeit not a drop-in replacement.

Not quite what you're looking for, but Gonepass is a GTK read-only frontend for 1Password data. And Enpass is a complete replacement for 1Password.
