I keep KeepassXC open most of the time; it's my password manager. All of my most important passwords are random strings kept in a keyfile that's locked with a very long and complex password that I have memorized. The screenshot shows the names of seven servers that I am responsible for. Sushichan and Uboachan are hosted on Sanctum. What could all of those other servers be for? It's a mystery! :3

This sounds great sushi roll. I've been having an issue with passwords recently, so I could really use this.

I've been needing to start thinking of newer ones due to getting phished on some sites. Kind of my fault since I've always used the same one or two passwords for almost every site I've ever registered on, but now it's grating of these sites always making me always think of brand new ones that need letters, numbers, special characters etc. My piss poor memory won't be able to keep up.
