Interesting question! I just checked and, wow, I have 922 accounts in 1password. (From 10+ years of use.)

It’s funny you bring this up because I’ve thought about “cleaning up” 1password before. But all the extra accounts are not really in my way.

I never use oauth (like to create a new account / password for everything). All of my work-related accounts are in there from several employers. Lots of passwords for (probably dead) servers. I count 28 logins for salesforce.com from past employers, various sandboxes, and consulting gigs.



The archive feature is nice for cleanup. It doesn’t delete, just hides from lists and searches. I’ve un-archived many items before.

Me too. I have 672. Lots are for accounts I set up for nieces/nephews, etc., so those don’t really count. I bet 100 are stale as well I’ll clean them up one day. Lol.
