My preference is for long passwords that comprise a natural language sentence. They are easy to remember and hard to brute force once they are greater than 40 characters. You don't need any of these draconian password rules if the password is long enough.
- stevewillows 9y agobefore I got into a password manager, I resorted to song lyrics, capitalizing the first character, including a number and a symbol at the start. '#1I'm picking up good vibrations', for instance.
- Harvey-Specter 9y agoA tad off topic, which password manager would you recommend?
- edgan 9y agoIt isn't awesome, but the best all around one I have seen is LastPass.
- stevewillows 9y agoI started with LastPass, but switched to OnePassword when LP was acquired by LogMeIn. OnePassword (the standalone client) was great, but it didn't work with linux at the time. I ended up trying keepassxc for a time, but ultimately ended up with bitwarden, which has served me extremely well. BitWarden isn't as polished as OnePassword, but its not far off. Since its purely browser-based, it works with every OS.
