ctrl+c & ctrl+v from MY ORIGINAL COMMENT:
"And the password storages and autocompletions don't count, that's a plaster on top of idiotic paradigm, nothing else."
difference - someone breaks in to your password "manager" account? all of your accounts are fucked automatically
someone gets ONE of your passwords to ONE of your accounts?
they still have to guess where else you're registered -
@Midnigh-shcode You have an option to encrypt and have it stored locally without cloud but it has been proven than even without that it's the safest way. We have an enterprise grade security in our company, everything is forbidden and password managers are a must. Company had numerous hacker attacks multiple times.

Possible Solutions :
1 - Password Manager
2- Browser remember Password
3- Write down your passwords
4- use unified passwords for sites that you can afford losing access to
5- don't use the site at all "since it's not an important site then you don't need it and if you need access then you need to follow their rules"
p.s. since you are a developer please don't sit idle and go create the next server/remote client verification methodology man humanity is putting its hopes on you.
p.s.s most web sites that run from decent countries are regulated and based on those regulations they define the protection and the procedures of signing up.

FUCK YOUR PASSWORDS
FUCK YOUR PASSWORD REQUIREMENTS.
FUCK YOU thinking you are the most important site in the universe so of course everyone will remember their password mangled beyond the original intention/recognition by your idiotic requirements!
I want to have an insecure password? MY PROBLEM.
I want to have the same password everywhere so I don't have to go through the idiotic "forgot my password" dance each time I try to login into your page? MY PROBLEM!
You're not the most important site in the universe.
I'm getting seriously fed up with this idea in general.
WHAT THE FUCK. Why did nobody come up with nothing better yet?
And the password storages and autocompletions don't count, that's a plaster on top of idiotic paradigm, nothing else.
