> the standalone purchase is just fairly well hidden because it's not the recommended path
I don't care how many arguments they bring to the table that the subscription model is superior, the things that matter are still "broken" in the subscription model: Control over my data and "cost control".
With a standalone license i can control where i store my sensitive information, and don't have to rely on 1Password doing the "right thing" and protect their servers.
I can also choose if i want to upgrade, or if the current version is good enough for my needs.
I will never pay a subscription for any software.
