Due to password requirements (letters, at least one capital, numbers) and security concerns that required me to change my passwords, at this point I remember, basically, NONE of my passwords for various sites. I’m currently using the super-safe and security-conscious measure of a text file with all my passwords in it.

Am I officially an old woman now?

Aww. I have a similar system, trololol.

Yeah... I have so many passwords now so I have a text file too. But I did get a good tip about password making so now I use song lyrics/quotes for all my passwords by taking the first letter of each of the words in the quote and I'll capitalize a letter and add a number at the end (so it makes the text file feel a little safer since I just put the quote). I also lie on security questions now and use a diff fandom for each to base my answers on.

Oh, that is a good tip.

Have you tried LastPass? Or you can use KeePass for more control.

I have not. I’m a little leery of using another program to remember all my passwords, though.

I can't tell anyone about my password protection system! That would reduce its effectiveness! At least I don't have my password taped to the underside of my stapler.
