   Presumably this is for all your passwords stolen from other places.

     1Password is what I use. Works across any platform I can think of and keeps it all in sync.

     @friend @paulcox @mattl I think "being techy" is no reason. But yes, for offices, especially shared offices, paper is not a good solution. There a password manager and (real) single sign-on is probably best. Also for travel (mobile phone) and cross-platform use there are no good solutions. For mobile, it's probably best to use the built-in browser password manager, but for all the extra app passwords like banking app PIN etc.? And for cross platform use, it's probably best to just update manually on both systems instead of transferring all passwords with a potentially unsafe tool over the internet. Lot of variables in play here; depends on your threat model. But for many home users, paper is still a good solution.

     @http Yeah, probably. Although when you're techy enough, you want to be using a password manager. And in a shared office, this isn't a great idea either, especially when people from outside your team have access, like e.g. cleaning personnel.

     @mattl for some people this is still a better solution than using the same password everywhere, requires someone to break into the house
