@aaronpk @vibronet @zenithar @FiloSottile @bcrypt @evacide @brandur I've been thinking recently that I need to up my password game, but there are so many conflicting suggestions out there. What password management strategies do you all use/recommend?

I'm a fan of @1password, been using it for a few years now. Unique random passwords for each service. The only thing on my wishlist is that 1Password could generate passwords with words that also include caps and numbers cause some sites still have these requirements.

  Yes it's all different ones, and I use a non-cloud password manager. Interestingly: This generation pattern has the effect of me eventually memorizing the common ones by repetition but not reusing any at different places.

  Interesting! The idea of using a character class suffix to get around weird password policies, when your password is already secure by length, makes a lot of sense. So do you generate a new wordlist password for each site? How do you remember them?

  My recommended strategy is to generate a wordlist style password (which is secure in its own right) and append the requisite character classes to the end, like "Aa1!"

  I'm also on 1Password. Good software with mobile and Linux versions. I haven't tried many alternatives though (except LastPass, which is not recommended).

  Same strategy but with @LastPass.
