I was gonna ask about the biometrics part in a separate question, but its both about security, so might as well combine it in one post.

Okay so I don't use password managers. I just try to make easy to remember passwords 3-4 random words + 3-4 random numbers. Online accounts can't be brute forced anyways. For offline accounts, I just increase the words and numbers. For mobile I don't use biometrics, although I've been testing whether or not I want a pin + no biometrics or alphanumeric password + biometrics. I just can't decide.

Funny because in work I keep passwords in txt file with logins hosts etc. It is against security rules. In my personal pc I'm using password manager because I want to have everything in single place and secured a bit.
