1Password is excellent, been using them for years, but don't be surprised if they take a dip in quality in the coming years: a PEG invested a large amount of money in them late last year. Was really upset when I saw that.

I believe it stands for Private Equity Group.

Which password manager would you say has the brightest future, for someone looking to start using one with no prior experience besides Chrome account sync?

Honestly it doesn't matter that much, it's fairly easy to change.

1password is nice for the polish especially on Mac; Bitwarden is nice to use, open-source, and the free plan is sufficient for most; and KeepassXC is a stable offline solution (that you can sync yourself).
