I went through the pain of resetting hundreds of my passwords since the last breach during which they lost encrypted data. It was brutal, took several weeks and I had to spend late nights and weekends resetting passwords as a hobby project.

I am glad I went through all the pain.

For anyone who still needs to do this, consider deleting accounts you no longer need. For some sites it's about the same effort to change a password as it is to delete an account (others... a lot more). The next time you need to bulk change passwords, you'll have fewer to change.
