This meme couldn't explain it better - a strong password crumbles like a cardboard castle when used across multiple sites. Nails the message to the T.

i use this on all sites:

3 lower case 3 uppercase 3 special chars and 3 numbers, (pseudo) randomly arranged, (pseudo) randomly generated.

How do you keep track of your passwords, if you don't mind me asking? That's where I get stuck

If you’re alright with an online password manager Bitwarden is the best one there is. If you prefer having an offline password manager KeePassXC is a great option as well :)

Use a passphrase, so much better and more secure

Well once you get passkeys implemented in every website. Now they'll need to steal your phone. Haha.

I just use engine model codes and body series# with special characters. Most of them are not even from the same vehicle so I doubt any one can remember. Shit sometimes I even forget what engine I coded with a certain vehicle. And then I get the you "can't used the same password" which was enter previously to login.
