The only good passwords are those you don't know yourself because they are randomly generated and all stored in your password manager of choice.
it's all fun and games until you don't have access to your password manager
Well that's on you then.
1. Keep encrypted backups of your password database, so that you can migrate to something else if you need to.
B. Make sure to have your password database synced to your phone or accessible in some other way when you're out and about.
III. If purely offline and local password manager with no syncing, have a way for a trusted person to be able to access it, if you need them to.
• Lastly, attempt to not suffer memory loss and forget your main credentials to the password manager.
