A password manager mitigates other threats that a spreadsheet in iCloud Drive does not, such as a program just directly reading it and ruining your life. And, anyways, password managers give you auto fill which is a significant quality of life improvement.
A memorable password is not a bad password, if done right. I have a password for both my google account and Apple ID that's easy to type because when you're in device setup you can't auto fill and so random passwords are a huge pain
- nicknow 4y agoWhen I was doing IT ops for a company, we had a little program that generated 4 random common words and put a symbol between them (!.@#$%). Super easy to type and fairly easy to memorize, but according to every password checker also really hard to crack. "Broth.Dogs.Run.Blue" is 10x easier to remember than "$#kdSk$SWE223" but 1000x times more secure. Probably more so, because you are less likely to have to write it down to remember it.
