Password Strength: Medium
✅ More than 8 characters
✅ At least one number
❌ At least one special character
❌ At least one capital letter
The thing is, nobody knows if you write a special character or not. They might try to brute force passwords without first. But the way more important factor is length.
Just 5 random words and you are fine
When I wasnt using a password manager for password creation I just did random sentences that were not allowed to have meaning. They were quite easy to memorize because they were so absurd. Usual password check would be 3 trillion trillion years or something.
I have a LUKS pw like that. I just add some words over time, when the beginning is muscle memory
