Vent: I used to think a simple password was fine until my old email got hit in that big 2023 breach

I mean, for years I just used my dog's name and my birth year for everything, idk, it was easy. After seeing my old Yahoo account on a leaked list, I switched to a password manager and now every login is a unique 16-character mess. Has anyone else had to rebuild their whole digital life after something like that?

My "unique 16-character mess" is now just me yelling at my phone for the wrong password.

Read a piece about password managers helping with that exact problem, @quinn_kim45. Might save your voice.
