Posted September 17, 2018 I noticed something new with Chrome in the last week, and I'm not sure when it happened, but I like it. When I was on a website preparing to make a new account on this site, I filled in my desired user name, and prepared to enter one of my go-to passwords for trivial sites (I know this isn't the best way). Anyway, once I clicked in the password field, a new dialogue from chrome popped up suggesting a long random looking string of characters for a password that it would then keep. For better or worse I've been letting google keep track of almost all of my passwords for me for years now, and it's very handy, and seems to be fairly secure. But this password generation isn't something I've seen before. Is this a new feature they're rolling out to compete with companies like Lastpass and others? Is this better, worse, worth using, etc?

Posted September 17, 2018 I wouldn't trust it, chrome have your password store in plain text SLQ on your computer. Anyone who has physically access have access to your password. Please for love of god use a password managers. edit: Lastpass is good free online cloud based manager and KeePass is much better but require more time to setup (Also if your master password is shit, this isn't better) Magical Pineapples
