    Use your brain. Literally. It’s the only safe way to store passwords.

      I have over 300 different passwords for different accounts. I’m not remembering that many passwords.

      I probably have around 100 accounts that I’d need to remember the passwords to, that’s not possible while keeping them actually decent and unique.

        Flashcards. Write down your credentials and memorize them. Throw them away willy nilly when you’re done.

          That would work, if I had like ten or twenty of them to remember.

          No amount of studying is gonna make me remember almost a hundred strings of 24 random characters, and what string goes to what account

          Hey, don’t use a password manager like KeePass, because brain is the only safe place to store passwords. In order to do that, WRITE THEM ON FLASH CARDS to memorize them and then THROW THEM AWAY

          Tell me it was a joke
