Passwords are like growing old. You feel like the best ones are already behind you.

If you’re lucky, you can get away with remembering just one for your password manager. That password hasn’t changed in over 10 years.

Passwords should not exist anymore in 2026 in my opinion (passkey, webAuthIn, OICD, SAML2, etc)

Passwords are fine. It’s people who should not exist.

Yeah, now my passwords are just random nonsense.

Passwords should be like bad experiences.
The more you remember the worse they were.

Disagree, correcthorsebatterystaple is probably more cryptographically secure than any random password you’re using now, and it’s extremely memorable

Until you remember that dictionary attacks exist and it’s not that complex.
Using passwordmosnster that password is 76 years “to crack” as it is all lower case, English words.
Removing the e from staple increases the time to 98 centuries.
