I believe passwords should be Mnemonics and different for everything.


For bs sites like car forums and news sites. I use stupid simple passwords. Though for sites I use more I do 2fa and Mnemonics.

Like my old TD password.

I post here as Napoleon from New Orleans.

I don't use that one anymore, but it's a phrase tied to the site I'm on that only I knew that I shortened into a password.

You can use symbols and such too in place of words great for at or and.

I never did this until I was riding a subway in New York and they had this info ad about making all your passwords Mnemonics to make your passwords almost impossible to guess.

This is what my IT guys suggested. They also threw out the idea of using spaces when the password would allow it. And, as you suggested symbols for words, most common ones:

@ = A
* = o or 0
& = and
! - I or 1
$ = S
