I use a unique password for/to every login(nothing shares as pw) i have that is the maximum characters the system/site allows that is randomized upper case characters, lower case characters, numbers, allowed symbols for the system/site, and unicode ascii if possible.

Am I doing it correctly?

Probably makes it too easy to forget passwords and login info. Security is useless if you can't get past it.
 
Based except password managers are talmudic, use your memory. I use unique 25 character passwords on each website I'm registered on (not many) and I keep all of them only in my memory and nowhere else. How? The first 15 or so characters are the same for each website and it's only there to provide entropy so you're safe against brute force attacks; the second part of the password is unique and based on a common pattern you can deduce when you want to log in, e.g. the pattern could be each site's name in reverse like smrafiwik or elgoog. This part is useful so if a databreach happens on that site, you won't be compromised on other websites. I obviously don't use this particular pattern, but you can get creative and then you only have to remember the pattern and the universal part of the password, this way you don't have to rely on software and it also gets your noggin joggin.
You may give me the autistic rates now.

Ralph giving away his password on stream was what finally convinced me to start using a password manager and actively change my passwords using a randomizer. The chudbuds is what solidified my decision.
 
in 2023 any website that allows anything even close to touching the asshairs of free speech is a target for doxers, troons, and governments

it's not web 1.0 anymore. act accordingly

no, we tried and it was a nightmare. Minecraft is single-threaded and my dream of a 64 player hellserver was dashed by abysmal performance.

The java edition is.
The bedrock edition is multi-threaded iirc.

Don't forget to set your password as your account flavor text.

Yep. Password managers are just another potential attack vector. I wouldn't touch one with a 50 foot pole, nor would I use the same password on every website.

2FA is a pain in the ass, but minor discomfort is nothing compared to the alternative.

A complete distrust of random people and random downloads from the Internet, along with compartmentalising online IDs to the best of one's ability, is the way to go.

A good quality paid antivirus program and a reputable ad blocker also go a long way to keeping safe online.

I'm just glad I lost interest in Chudbuds fairly quickly thanks to the likes of the Gunt Guard, groypers and Kinochet infecting it with gigaAIDS early on
