I used to think password managers were overkill until I hit 87 saved logins

After counting up how many sites I actually use and realizing I was recycling passwords across like 40 of them, that was the wakeup call I needed, anyone else have that moment where the number just shocked you into changing your habits?

Hit 87 and still refuse to use one. Just memorized a system where I tweak each password by site name. @the_hayden would probably call me insane but it works for me.

Yeah that number will do it. Hit about 60 myself and finally caved. Best decision ever.

Remember thinking that was a crazy amount to spend. Then I hit 55 and my old one just quit on me. Felt like a totally different world once I finally upgraded. That number seems high until you actually experience the difference it makes.
