How do you handle your passwords?

How do you handle your passwords?
I been using one password for literally everything for a long time.
What stops sites from trying your password on other sites?

Sorta needed a thread like this too. I read the Sup Forums wiki section on password managers a few days ago, and it said they will generate passwords for you that are the max characters allowed for any service. So all you have to do is memorize the master key to access the respective password for anything you use. Seems neat but at the moment I'm still using nonsense sentences as per an xkdc comic I once saw.

As well there is another xkcd comic that very explicitly tels of some hypothetical dude's master plan of getting into a chunk of the population's private accounts from their sharing passwords across services. I wouldn't put it past people.

>What stops sites from trying your password on other sites?
Now you've got the idea. That's why it's so serious when a major company gets their user's passwords hacked. Because those users often use the same passwords across many different sites and services, and the hacker can use/sell that information to extend their reach.

I just got on the keepass train very recently and regret not doing this 15 years ago.

Your password is probably already on a dictionary. This just makes stealing all of your information easy as pie.

My passwords all come from a formula but part of the formula is the name of the website, so it's easy for me to remember, but every website has its own password, so even if one was comprised, none of the other ones world be, and I don't need to rely on any sort of managers or anything.

I saw someone in an sqt once ask if they should go for like Keypass or Keypass X. What's that about?

KeePassX

>What stops sites from trying your password on other sites?
Only their own restraint.

For a while I was using one 'base' password with a short unique modification for each site, but I realized how retarded it was for bank sites and the like so I began to use Keep Ass.

Deprecated. Use KeePassXC instead.
