made myself a simple python password generator that pulls 5 words from the BIP39 sed word list rather than a bunch of random characters. easier to remember

password vibe today's 5 word that random rather pulls a to simple of BIP39 a characters. the than break:
made list words sed easier myself from python remember bunch coding
Oh sick!
easier? no way I'm remembering more then ... well ... one 😂
I actually memorize a bunch of passwords and phrases like this. This will get my count higher so certain wallets or services I can get into without always needing my password manager.
Dope! Is it more secure than alphanumeric + symbols?
I like the idea of coming up with a “passphrase” and then replace some letters with numbers, symbols and CAPS. Not that hard to remember 10-15 characters that way.
Yes, passphrases are more secure. You separate the words with a symbol (bitwarden default is a dash) and since most sites require a number, you can just add a random single digit number to any word. BUT, you should not be trying to remember your password. Every place you use a password should have a unique one. That’s why you need a password manager like VaultWarden.
Very nice!
I have built something similar with using dice and as list of words. The result is a passphrase of 12 words.
