Usability. 1Password on my Mac and iPhones with iCloud as backing storage “just works”, and I trust iCloud more than Dropbox for secure storage.

Disclaimer: Using 1Password 5, which was a one time payment.

KeePassXC and Dropbox "just works," and it works on Windows, macOS, Linux, *BSD, Android, iOS, ...

Dropbox can be swapped out with other storage services.

At least on iOS, this doesn't appear to be meaningfully true. With 1Password if I have navigated to a site's login page in Safari, all I need to do is hit the 1Password Activity button and it will populate my name and password.

With "Keepass Touch for iOS" my options are either: "You're browsing wrong. If you want to log in to something, use the integrated browser" or "switch apps from safari to Keepass, copy username to clipboard, switch back to Safari, paste username, switch back to Keepass, copy password, switch back to Safari, paste."

No thanks. This is still meaningfully behind in the usability department.

Why is that? Dropbox has a pretty good record, no?

And ultimately, the point is 1password’s db should be well encrypted so you don’t have to trust the underlying storage.

Not so much. My creds were leaked in their 2012 breach.

They’ve been around since 2007 and are an obviously juicy target. To me that’s pretty good.. even companies like google get hacked.... and that breach was 6 years ago? Any major breach since then?

> secure storage

The passwords should be encrypted at rest (and are with KeePassXC), so Dropbox' (or iCloud's, for that matter) security is irrelevant.

Version 6 was a free upgrade.
