    You using a password manager does not solve that this org stores your password in plain text and will email it to whatever’s on file when ANYONE clicks the forgot password button.

      That’s why I always use password hashes as my passwords. So when some hacker steals the database, with all the clear text passwords, and look at my account they think somehow this password is still hashed and don’t try using it directly. My current lemmy-password is $argon2d$v=19$m=16,t=2,p=1$Mk9RTWNESzMyWVljUGo5RA$BiGKlhzFuiWA0N78KzEmCQ
