Last Tuesday I got an email saying someone in Manila changed my Netflix password, and when I checked my email it turned out they'd tried the same login on my bank too. I sat there and counted, 14 different accounts all sharing the same password since 2018, and I only changed them because the bank one scared me straight. How do you all keep track of different passwords without losing your mind, do you actually use a manager or just write them in a notebook like my dad does?
