You ever get annoyed bc you have a password that’s has several different variations depending on the account but you end up needing to reset the password constantly bc you can’t remember that one specific variation (e.g., capital, lowercase, symbol)

Enter password wrong 5 times. Reset password. ‘You must pick a different password than your current password.’ 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

Ha. Are you me? This is a constant struggle for me but am too invested in my password as well. My wife might leave me the next time she finds out I locked us out of the electric company portal again. I keep a notebook of passwords that I try to keep up to date. Marginally effective.

I had a password manager and it didn't work well. Albeit this was 5 years ago and they are likely much better now. I hate all the facial biometrics, they are slow and fussy.
I've gone back to 1995 mode of a password file protected by my favorite password unique to this one use. I know it screams boomer, but I don't care. It has over 160 password entries now, many I only need once a year (FAFSA anyone?), or even more rarely (EZPass, been 10 years already?).

Password solution: use website name and something standard after that.

For example: Amazon&ab2012, Google&ab2012

Initials and year of graduation or birth or whatever... you will never have to reset again

Yes, all the time.

Get a better password strategy. I’ve used mine for years and never run into this anymore and still always compliant. The only problem one is LinkedIn because they don’t take special characters.

All my passwords are stored encoded in my google contacts.

Yes. It works for a while. I have a system. abc123* + the first 4 letters of the site name. But then some sites needed a capital letter and symbol. Then other sites required me to change my PW every few months. And for security I changed mail and FB PWs. And now I have a collection of PWs. 😂

I use SplashID to store PWs. Been using it for years on my phone.

*not actually this but 3 letters and 3 numbers. I use airport codes for the letters and the area code for the numbers.

Use Bitwarden! It’s an open source password manager and you can add it to your browser so that it will automatically sign you into websites using the tool. I used to have the issue you’re having with all my accounts but now that I use the tool, I only have to remember one password. Seriously a game changer for me
