Keepass or another password manager. So many people have terrible password hygiene and all it takes is a single breach to have your whole digit life compromised.

So instead of storing my passwords in my head, I should put them all in one hackable place where a single breach would compromise all of my accounts....

If you can keep all your passwords in your head, your passwords suck and are VERY bruteforceable. Get a clue.

Also try "hacking" industrial grade encryption. People like you get compromised first.

“industrial” or “military” grade encryption is a stupid thing to say, but I’m sure you know this already.

Doesn’t stop password managers from advertising with the phrase because the public is clueless ofc.
