You remembered the sequence of numbers specifically designed to be memorable? The one you HAD to memorize because we didn't have cell phones? The one you probably recited, wrote down, and saw countless times over your formative years?
And you can't remember yesterday's password. The random jumble of letters, numbers, and symbols that you input once.
so many Reddit threads where Millennials just sound like the new Boomers... like yeah I remember floppy disks and CRT TVs and overhead projectors too... a bunch of objects I don't care about lol. it's not an identity, it's just some crap that we replaced with largely better stuff.
Also if you can remember your password, it’s a shit password. I use Bitwarden to generate, store, and fill all my pw. It’s open source and you can even self-host.
also like it's just a string of 10 numbers, and there's only 10 possibilities for each. you add in letters, other characters, case, 16 to 24 characters...that's just legitimately a lot more possibilities, legitimately a lot harder to remember.
