How do you remember your passwords?

[Cam]

Hey guys!

How do you remember your passwords? Do you write them down? Do you save them in an in-browser password manager, such as LastPass? Do you record them in a word document?

Thoughts?

I just try and remember them in my head. I have a handful of passwords I like to use for different types of sites.

I create neat acronyms that I like to remember things

I'm generally able to remember them, because my passwords generally have some meaning aside random numbers and letters. However, I generally try to remember to write down my important passwords on paper.

I just memorize them because they generally have some kind of meaning to me.

I'm able to remember most of my passwords since they have some form of meaning to my life IRL, but the handful that don't, I'll employ the same technique I used in school; write them down somewhere and repeat until I can remember it. xD

I'm able to remember my passwords, most of my passwords on the internet are not anymore than 16 characters. Under 16 character passwords I am able to remember in my brain, and I can login to my accounts online without forgetting the passwords. I do have them written down in case I do forget them though.

I don't, instead I use the built in manager that Linux Mint provides me. That way it safe yet I don't need to remember like 20 passwords at a given time.

I have signed up to so many places now that I can't remember my passwords. I use an app on Chrome called "LastPass" and I also have it on my iphone. It automatically fills the passwords to all my sites and apps I use on my phone. It can also analyse passwords across all websites and tell you which ones are repeated and helps you get them changed to something different.

Although I can remember most of my passwords, I have them all saved online and synced with my browser. It makes it easier for me to sign in quickly to whatever site that I decide to visit. No matter what happens, I always have them.

Same. It works on FF and Chrome and Ive got it on my phone as well. Its so nice not having to type in a password anymore.

I write them all down because they are all different and all random words too. But on my laptop that only i use, i have all my accounts signed in so i dont need to login in all the time.

Well, I store in my sticky notes. I know that it's not smart but they are easy to access and not to mention that my password is known to my sister and mom alone.
So, I don't have to worry about anyone else accessing my laptop. Also, I do save passwords in Chrome. I don't want to type the password each and every time.
I enable the guest account when, I have to give my laptop to somebody else like a colleague or friend though.
I do use different passwords to my main admin accounts. I was/is locked out of my blog main account. As I haven't posted anything in a long time, I haven't done anything.
So, it's better if you could recommend your passwords. Otherwise store them in a notepad and encrypt it using a software or just hide it using software like wise folder hider and such.
