A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Here's what you do: Generate long random string, for example: P5edM5Ce0SGE0rOr9k&#T*wG@d$og^qyBTk2@%dmO@2akbm!b^5^p!bH8w7Ei7gPSIR^1Er&hab3ae@0odk3h76Ka48kYtXrsburM$7rf^vPRwXz1s5guO&$PZz3@w
Memorize it.
For each site just choose a number and select 16 characters starting at this number.
Remember which page uses what number. E.g. google = 32 -> &#T*wG@d$og^qyBTk2
Done. You don't have to remember any more passwords for the rest of your life.

There you go, real easy.
Only 16 characters?
I was on the internet early enough that I had a four character, all lower case password to my emails and it never complained once.
I just started merging 3 common passwords I use through my life in chronological order. It's a 32 letter behemoth with lowercase, uppercase, numbers, and symbols. All in random patterns.
The middle password is one that I started using 2 years ago when I wanted a new password for my new OS installation called FreeBSD at the time. It had numbers and symbols but also "Frbsd" to stand for that name.
Now when I am signing up to a new service I change that portion in the middle of the 32 letter password so "...Frbsd..." becomes "...Gthb..." or "...Dscrd..." etc.
This way even if someone finds my password for gml it won't work for others either.
It's not so bad once you develop a system.
And as a bonus, when a few of them leak, hackers will have a little puzzle to solve. Hackers love puzzles.
We upped our passwords to sixteen chars last fall. Also, it’s UPPER lower digit and special-char. And we only require changing every twelve months when it used to be much more.
