Price increases are always annoying, but I will stay the course.
I don't see myself switching to free competitors like Apple Passwords or Google (doesn't do E2EE). While I am pretty much in the Apple Ecosystem, my family members who use 1P are not, you won't get the same support, it doesn't autofill entries with custom fields, you need to use separate apps to store notes and documents/images, etc. It is just a barren password manager that Apple provides for free and doesn't get the same love as 1P does.
As for competitor cloud based password managers, most of them just don't have a tight security model compared to 1P, and I'm including some of the newer entrants like Proton Pass. 1P made a really smart decision of having a separate password and secret key and using a PAKE to authenticate. I don't think anything has come close except maybe Enpass with its notion of a keyfile. For me, the security story is of utmost importance. Also a lot of the status quo can't seem to get the basics of encryption right, a few still supporting non-authenticated encryption, bleh.
As for Keepass or local (FOSS) password managers, I would rather just write in an encrypted plain text file instead and store everything there. I don't need to be forced into using a database for that.
