like a fair few other people, particularly on HN, my process is:

1. Pick an extremely good, very long master password.

2. Make my password manager generate maximum-allowed-length random line noise for every site I have an account on.

3. Never know or care what these passwords are.

4. For edge cases like workstation logins and "forgotten password hints", use diceware to generate easily typed nonsense phrases.
