Use the “passwords” feature to check if one of yours is compromised. If it shows up, never ever reuse those credentials. They’ll be baked into thousands of botnets etc. and be forevermore part of automated break-in attempts until one randomly succeeds.

    Ah right. Sorry, I just always used Linux with admin rights since I work in IT.

      Didn’t mean to offend you (or anyone else).

      I work in IT too (Windows) and have admin rights on my workstation. Even though I have the power to install any software, it’s against policy to do so (and technically that’s a good policy).

      Also, I don’t like the idea of anyone/anything but me having my passwords. I go with 2FA if something is important/certified based 2FA if it’s really important.
