From the article: "Our new 1Password apps are built in Rust..." Maybe give this version a try then?

Unfortunately that's deceptive.

Is it? The Reddit comment mentions that most of the code is written in Rust — I assume business logic, encryption, etc — and the UI is in electron via React.

So this certainly seems quite a bit different from plain electron apps.

This was a PR move to counter the criticism by trying to avoid mentioning Electron, they were heavily criticized for that.

That's only the backend. GP's complaint is about the frontend.
