376 items accumulated over 12 years using password manager and multiple cleanup runs. I think top for me was around 480.
It was hard to find it in the new version of 1password

#292I see many people mentioning the number of passwords in their KeepassXC. I can't find the option for that. Where is it?
Ctrl+Shift+R (or Database → Database Reports)

#2931Password tells me I have 4,182 items... and that's probably not even everything.

#294Earlier quoted context omitted.
I just use a crappy password. It's been leaked before. I don't care. If someone wants to take over my last.fm account that I haven't used in 3 years, sure go for it. The important accounts get a randomly generated password stored in my password manager. And the really important accounts only have half the password saved, I manually fill in the other half.
Why save half the password, versus not saving any of it at all? Is this because the password is very long and you just want to save keystrokes?
Half of the password is randomly generated, the other half is something I add that I can derive easily (think last 5 letters of the website reversed, etc.)
That way if my bitwarden gets compromised, attacker still doesn't have my gmail, bank, etc. logins
It adds a little bit of security while being mega simple

#297Definitely a relevant topic, I'd say, especially if the discussion help any stragglers over the "edge" into finally using a password manager. (As far as I'm concerned, it is absolutely a requisite for all digital citizens in 2023.) ((And kinda has been for 10+ years but ya know.))
I'm closing in on 5000 credentials in 1Password, personally, but my collected vaults/database is 15+ years old now and definitely has [problematic duplicates](https://github.com/1Password/solutions/issues/1).
After a lengthy-enough sample of semi-formal self-observation, I'm averaging:
- signing in/authenticating 10 times/day (including weekends,) and most of those are repeats with the same service. - Almost 10 new accounts/credentials per week. (Granted, I'm pretty darn indiscriminate about doing so while exploring.)
Without tangenting too far, if anyone has any advice about how to constructively normalize password management (even just as an abstract) for end users - whatever that may mean - I'd love to hear it.
