I was reusing the same password for my bank and a gaming forum until I got an email from the forum about a breach last month.

What's a good password manager that doesn't feel too complicated to set up?

Saw my buddy go through this exact thing. He used the same password for his work email and some random fitness app. Got a data breach notice from the app. Took him a whole weekend to change everything. He finally tried Bitwarden. Said it was way less scary than he thought. Just had to remember one main password after that.

Oh man, that's the classic move right there. Using your work email password for the "LegDayLifter3000" app. It's like using the key to your house to lock a public bathroom stall. Sure, it works, but you're gonna have a real bad time when that stall gets kicked in.
