iCloud Keychain and Syncing with iPhone.

Those, plus battery life and noticeably more overall respect for system resources, here. FF and Chrom(e/ium) aren't even close. Which is too bad, because I'd like to have decent plugins again, but it's not worth the cost.

I'm a 1password user and apple has really allowed it to be a good first class, cross platform participant in login interactions on ios and macos. I disabled the apple-managed password and autofill options.

Yes, indeed. The keychain is kind of a big selling point. I'm planning to try and move onto BitWarden to keep my password management cross-platform and open source but it's not as well-integrated. It would be way better if it could sync the iCloud credentials instead of manually having to jump through hoops to get them in.

The Apple lock-in with my passwords makes me feel uneasy and probably way less likely to consider using other platforms as often for daily tasks.
