Do you use a different password on every website you visit? - Condoms - Mar 27, 2020

Some people use different passwords on different websites they visit.

Others, use the same.

What about you?

Yes I do.

They are stored only in my head. I will never trust a third party app.

Pennywise,

Different 128 char passwords for every website. Bitwarden all the way!

I have a set different password I use for various websites,
Pretty much have to reset PW every now & then due to them tangling with each other while logging in.

Similar passwords but with slight differences depending on bank, games...

Yes, and I use a password manager (LastPass) to ensure every password is lengthy, complicated, and never has to be typed. If you've ever wondered how LastPass is secure, then I'd recommend you read this article. It explains what would happen if LastPass were ever hacked (and it has been before- without compromising any encrypted data). But that same information is what makes LastPass a better alternative to effectively everything else.

Yes i do. I generate and store them with the help of the awesome tool KeePass for linux. I obviously backup my keepass database very often so i dont lose my data.

Most websites won't allow such long passwords.

True. Well, I use the limit sites accept. Mostly, 128 char. If you've noticed, some that sites that allow 128 char won't let you login after.

Yes I definitely on different passwords :)

You just need to jot down all your passwords for you to have it in times you will be needing them :)

Doing such thing makes your account much more safer :)

Yes and if you want my passwords, I have this piece of paper on my desk. Take it and you have my life.

Of course I do I'm not that dumb.


RE: Do you use a different password on every website you visit? - SaintJimmy - Mar 27, 2020

Yes, I do. And I try to keep them memorized in my head by finding a trick or another. I lost try to make sure that they have no meaningful context.
