Ever wondered how long your passwords should be for strong security? Experts recommend a random mix of at least 14 to 16 characters for every unique password.

    For passwords i have to remember i use passphrases.

    But for stored passwords? i like 35 characters. Most services accept it and doesn’t seem to have a con.

      And then there are those services that let you enter arbitrarily long passwords in the registration form but only save something like 16 characters.

        I know about them but I haven’t experienced it yet. Hope I never will though.

      The article is from Bitwarden, which is a password manager - using them you don’t need to remember individual passwords (or type them, normally).

      Bitwarden does have an option to use passphrases, I just tried it and it gave me washtub-moocher-dominoes.

        I use auto generated passphrases. It’s mostly for the occasions where I need to give the password to someone, without logging into my bitwarden account, on the device. It’s a lot easier, for comparable levels of security.
