Comment on God ****** dammit, here we go again
1984@lemmy.today 1 week agoI think its almost a crime that browsers havent evolved to make users generate unique, secure passwords by default. Its just another huge sign that these browser companies dont care about security or privacy, despite their marketing departement rabbling those words.
I dont think there has been any evolution at all in this area…
You can right click any password field in Chrome and the first option is “generate random password”.
2 Issues are the they (1) it is completely unreadable by humans instead of being a passphrase, and (2) The generator does not read any rules off the page so you might have to add a special character.
But the functionality has existed for over a decade

Firefox generates random passwords for you by default. You have to disable it in the settings if you want to use another password manager besides Firefox’s built in one.
