Vent: That $80 password manager I bought saved my accounts after a data breach

I dropped $80 on a premium password manager last year after I kept using the same password for everything. Big mistake ignoring that until last week when one of my old accounts got hit in the Shopify breach. It auto-filled new strong passwords across all my logins in like 10 minutes and flagged my reused ones. Anyone else get burned by lazy password habits before switching?

Damn, that Shopify breach got a lot of people. So how many of your old passwords were actually in that breach database or did you just get spooked and change everything?

Changing passwords is just giving them what they want.

Wasn't in there, but I changed everything anyway. Old habits.
