Has to be 16 characters

So long as I can use more than that, I won't complain. I don't remember the service, but I definitely remember one where they wouldn't allow over a certain amount of characters and that was annoying because that was when I was still using repeat passwords back in highschool. My preferred password at the time was roughly 20 characters, but apparently that was too much because who cares about security, am I right?

I can remember like 5 passwords. My computer password, my work computer password, my trash everything password and my password vault password. I know that's only 4, but I still remember my last vault password, so that one counts twice

Everything else is some random shit that I bitch about entering manually when pasting doesn't work.

Use a password manager. Problem solved.

and my password vault password

Use a password manager

Lol

For everybody commenting on passwords manager, I've been using one for years now and I feel this so bad. My company has a password policy of changing the LAPTOP's password every 8 weeks and you can't reuse any of the last 10 passwords used. I hate it because I can't use a password manager to unlock my laptop and I'm so used to password managers by now that it's getting really hard to come up with new passwords that follow the stupid requirements and even worse remembering them. I'm veeeery close to just start noting them down in a notebook by my machine and then send a picture to our security guy to show him where he has gotten us all to

!!! PASSWORD TOO WEAK !!! - your password must contains upper and lowercase characters, digits and symbols except not a hyphen for some fucking reason,, and no characters you've ever used in past passwords and no digits that are in your postal code, data of birth, or shoe size. Zalgo text is acceptable.

Quick question friends:

If I'm already using bitwarden and decide to switch to self-hosting it; can I import my usernames and such?

I would most likely change all the passwords, but being able to migrate the websites (with corresponding username) would be kinda nice

What is the best move?

Ah but you see there's the problem, you don't have a committee to launch a working group that puts together investigative teams to research and write reports on the benefit of the solution, the ROI of the solution, the training costs of the solution, stakeholder buy in of the solution, and potential alternatives to the solution. You need at least a 10 month process before one jackass says they don't want the solution so the committee can recommend to management that the solution be abandoned.
