    It is unique and I have MFA enabled so it hasn’t changed in a very long time. As per current security best practices.

      3 is actually a really easy number to guess (first prime after 2, number of people in a threesome, etc.). You should probably go with 4.

    Use a yubikey, password is useless unless hacker can obtain your physical key also

    A bit over two months ago. I try to go through my password manager to change all my passwords and clean up unused accounts a couple times a year.

    Last week. In an effort to de-google as much of my PC as I could the only chromium based browser I have is edge. I used librewolf for general browsing (unlock) and Firefox for porn (unlock and no script). Librewolf has known issues working with YouTube which will cause even the highest speed internet to have YouTube be choppy AF. So I used edge for YouTube. But there is a known big in edge that logs you out of everything when you close the browser. And after a dozen times of 2FA logging in I just said fuck it and changed my Gmail password…and can’t close edge of I want to continue to watch certain channels

    Alright, I have no idea. It’s probably been around ten years since I’ve deleted it.

      If you’re memorizing your password, don’t change it too often because it’ll just confuse you and encourage you to pick easy to remember passwords which are less secure. Change your password if you hear about a hack, or have reason to suspect your password got leaked. Otherwise there’s no need.

      If you have a password manager though, go off. Change it as often as you’d like.

      (Also 2FA, unique passwords per site, etc etc etc)
