The contempt Proton is showing for their users is astounding. They not only think people will fall for this transparent act of damage control, but they also have the gall to shift blame onto the users.

I never understood why someone would use a 3rd party for "password management"

    Just add the name of the site/service to your usual password.

    If your usual password is "Password123", then your Google password is "Password123google", your Lemmy password is "Password123lemmy" and your ebay password is "Password123ebay", etc etc etc. (Obviously, you'd want to use a better base password than that. This is just an example.)

    That way, it's super easy to remember because you only need to remember one password, but you still have a unique password for every different service, so you won't get burned when one inevitably leaks it.

    This is horrible advice, one of the reason you should have different passwords is that if one site has bad security and your password gets leaked your other accounts are safe. If this password gets leaked your other passwords are easily guessable. A LLM will hack your other accounts without a problem...
