Why are you not using a password manager

If you're using a password manager you don't need phrases you can remember, you can generate even more secure passwords. Or start using passkeys.

Most are cross device. Use bitwarden

Guest machines too. And I sorta prefer whichever browser/OS I’m using’s implementation because they’re usually styled similarly.

I am, and I'm not jumping through hoops of making up a password sentence for every new website. I let Bitwarden take care of that for me.

Just use these methods for the pws you either need to know (like your password manager) or don't want stored for whatever reason, like your bank. Otherwise, yeah, just let your password manager generate a password for whatever site.
