Here is an example (no, not one I am using) of what a password of mine may look like:

And no, it is not hard to remember at all.
I use offline, non-caching Base64 coders.

Also wanted to test linking a Mastodon post of mine to my Lemmy account.
If anything bungles up, sorry in advance!
I wasn’t recommending OP to switch to an 80-character passphrase (see the very first sentence in my comment)… I was just showing that passphrases are about length and not about (real or perceived) randomnesshow difficult they are to memorize or type.
Also, if I may, one shouldn’t throw terms like “unbreakable” around: security is a game where you trade usability for resilience to attacks and what how much security is enough security depends on your specific circumstances and risk profile… absolute terms like “unbreakable” picture security as something different than the compromise it is and should be left to marketing people.
