    Few critiques, not personally towards you at all but I really don’t think people should follow this approach

    People can have hundreds of different passwords across various sites this really isn’t achievable

    Human memory is terrible as well, it’s not a matter of if you forget it’s when

    Storing in a standard notes file is absolutely terrible security, it’s also extremely unusable once you have more than a couple passwords

    I really suggest to people using a password manager, most of them have apps for your phone and plugins for your web browser to allow you to autofill. They also allow you to randomly generate passphrases/codes for different sites and the autofill means you never have to remember a single one whilst having extremely strong passwords

    I’d recommend looking into either Bitwarden or 1Password
