Strong passwords without reuse

Password strength is about entropy and uniqueness per site. Random generation beats clever mnemonics for most accounts.

Best practices

Use a password manager as the source of truth
Generate unique passwords per service
Prefer long random strings over complex short ones
Enable 2FA everywhere it is offered

Why generate locally

Server-side generators see your secrets. Client-side tools like the Password Generator keep generation in your browser.
