Well said! Always happy to hear from you EA_Kuba. Yes, using multiple password managers is definitely better than relying on just one. That would be a much safer compromise.
Also, thank you for finding the original post! Is it archived somewhere or is it just an old screenshot? Nonetheless, I really appreciate you taking the time to track it down. 🙂
Good stuff. Quick story. Until 2016 I used one password for several sites. I stopped that and use long complex ones, never duplicated since then.
Here is the fun bit. I check my "dark web profile," on some google service a couple of months back.
Guess what? My re-used password is still listed. It's harmless as I have changed all, or closed accounts with it over 7 years ago, but it's still there. Kind of funny, but quite a shock at first.
There is no harm in me typing the password that I used as I would never use any thing without letters, Capitals, numbers, and characters (% & $ etc) now and haven't done so since back then.
My really old password was Morrowind. Oh the innocence! Oh the stupidity. I was playing that game back in 2012 or so and used it as my normal password for everything. Kind of embarrassed, but I totally, suddently grasped how silly I had been almost a decade ago, so I am sharing.
BTW: Nothing was ever compromised. Luck probably. Also doing that now in 2025 without 2fa and bank accounts would be emptied. CC bill would include a Porshe 911, I identidy would be gone!!
Should have added, of course I deleted, and haven't used the account (an old hotmail one) since 2016.
Pretty amazed Google picked it up. Not that it will do anyone any good, - I mean bad!
