My personal "embarrassing" password would probably be the "I'm too lazy and just input a single space" :crazy_face:

It should be one you were most embarrassed about :stuck_out_tongue:

The password was from when I was 21, and smoked the weed!

some of my passwords were listed here which i used long back :joy:https://nordpass.com/most-common-passwords-list/ ,but keepassxc made my passwords hassle easy

I use Dashlane today, I only have to remember one password at a time, and it's complicated!
If it's only one password, then I can learn it in 15min

Here is a video about diceware

I've always been careful of these aspects, fortunately.
But when I joined my current company, my business unit came from the acquisition of a German company. The standard administrative password of an old and dismissed system was geheim (secret in German). After a while it was changed to the new-company-name1 (which is even worst), then new-company-name99 (what an effort...). Finally things changed a lot. It is a big multinational that pays a lot of attention to these aspects and I must admit it is a pleasure to follow their Cybersecurity trainings (and one of them brought me indirectly back to Linux :blush:).

And the worst part of that is that, many many many other companies took password security too lightly.

Saw once an admin password, it was "secret" -.-
That was at the university I went to, no wonder my password was qwerty.
University is not there anymore, what gives heh

This was the common password used for game servers with friends, mostly for us *nix users to bully Windoze friends into switching :slight_smile:

For proper passwords, I've long had GRCĀ |Ā Ultra High Security Password GeneratorĀ Ā  bookmarked for quickly/easily generation/access.

My home desktop password was 1

It is really handy and no one is going to get to my home desktop. Also, there is no layout change issues and it is easy to type ( obviously ).
