Hey, so I forgot my password while trying to migrate from firefox [I know I shouldve done that years ago but im very slow on the digital side of things] and never connected my previous account to an email [I thought I did but I guess I didn’t].
Im just going to link the old account to my bio [assuming it doesn’t get deleted, idk how that works]. Don’t worry, learned my lesson.
Also im mainly just posting this just in case anyone later is confused why this account has no history. Don’t know what community to post this in and this is the only one I could think of so…
Common sense applies. Obviously don’t carry your passwords around with you. Don’t store them at your office. Don’t leave them lying around if you don’t trust your roommates. Get a locked safe if you are particularly worried.
My point wasn’t that you should literally write your passwords down on post-its, i was slightly exaggerating to make a point, which is that the main security vulnerability is your Internet connection.
The main reason i wouldn’t recommend a physical notepad is not safety, it’s convenience. A digital file is much easier to manage and update as you periodically change your passwords. As long as it’s backed up, encrypted and stored offline it’s about as safe as it gets.
