    2 words for you:
    Password Manager

    Get around to using one :P

    I only remember my password to my PW manager, which additionally is encrypted with a key file to increase security.

    The rest of my PWs are 128 character long random generated PWs, with capitals, numbers, special characters etc…

      Yep. Several years ago I switched and it took a little getting used to. But now I would not want it any other way. The plugins in the browsers make it convenient and also a proper app on your mobile and you are set to go. Click on a password field and then you can click on the plugin to fill the fields.

      I wish all my passwords were 128 characters. Most sites won’t allow anything that complex. Because apperantly making the password hash field longer is hard /s

      I have tried to use a password manager like 3 separate times now and can never seem to get the hang of it

    I really appreciate that one last look Tom gives, it’s the same way I look at the already decomposing carcass of my fancy new password, as if ‘I will surely remember you’.

    Use bitwarden with a yubikey so you can double forget all of them quicker
