My password manager generates 32 character passwords composed of random alphanumeric characters by default. I usually don’t modify it unless I hit a restriction, or its a site I’m particularly concerned about getting penetrated (in which case I increase the number of characters).
I don’t mind sharing that because bluntly: anyone reading this, good luck figuring it out. The permutations is something along the lines of (26*2+10+(special characters))^32… Which is 3.5239… * 10^60… Otherwise known as 3.5 novemdecillion.
Usually 15, 16, 20, or 25 in my experience.
15/16 I get, no idea why 20/25 is so common.

Ha.
Wish we just had like 256 char passwords so I could actually use passphrases instead of passwords.
It’d be way more secure for me compared to what I’m doing now.
I’d do like Star Trek haikus or some such which would be actually possible to remember.
A person of culture, I see.
