Password algorithms, aka deterministic password managers, are usually pretty strong, specifically as strong as the master password(s) you use. Meaning that it’s usually easier to guess the mp than to reverse the algorithm.
Personally, I have different mp for different “security domains” (google/fb, banks, other socials, ...), and I’m using just a sha256 plus encoding — a trade off between requiring a stronger mp, and being able to easily remember everything, including the algorithm.
