Showerthought: I used to think paying for a password manager was dumb

Then I spent $40 a year on one and it caught a reused password on a site that got hacked last week. Anyone have a cheaper alternative they like?

That $40 is cheap insurance, honestly.

Exactly, it's not just about the one hack. The real cost is the time you waste resetting passwords everywhere after a breach, plus the stress of wondering what else you reused. That forty bucks buys back a lot of mental space. Once you stop having to remember any of them, you realize how much brain power it was actually taking up.
