      The number of saved passwords in my browser where one field is blank, I don’t do that anymore. Straight to the password manager.

        Bitwarden, whenever I login to a local site from my homelab: “Hey bro, want me to update this password that’s the exact same as what I have?”

          Aliases and match detection!
          Bitwarden is better at this than most managers.

        get yourself a password manager and insert a proper middleman!

        There, happy now?

          No, my problems are too convoluted for being “right” on the internet to solve :(

      So is having a password manager with a bunch of different passwords you don’t remember and just copy-paste considered the way to go these days?

        100%, yes. Cybersecurity people will confirm this is the safest way.

        Although, copy-paste is rarely needed. with browser extensions and android auto-fill, I am getting everything filled more or less automatically.

        I recommend Bitwarden personally.

    I accidentally updated the password of my router with the default PW after factory reset, but I’ve now restored all the settings (including my PW) from a backup. Could you please enter the password I had saved previously?

    Browser: what the fuck are you talking about?

    How is this remotely relatable? Browsers will suggest saving passwords but don’t actually save unless you explicitly accept.

      In Safari you have to jump through hoops to even so much as be able to type at all. Probably there’s a way to turn off that default behavior, but that itself would be just another form of jumping through hoops to be able to do that.
