Funny thing at work, I was handling some legacy users - we need to make sure that on the next login, if they have a weak password, they have to change it.

So the whole day I'm typing "123" as a password, 123 123 123 123 all good. So finally I'm done and now I'm testing it, and accidentally I type 1234 instead of just 123. Doesn't really matter, either is "weak", so I just click "Login".

Then goes Chrome, "1234 is known as a weak password, found in breaches, you should change it".

So TIL 123 is still good.

If you're looking to see how strong a password really is, check it here.

"The roman numerals in your password should multiply to 35." Ah crap.

I gave up after the atomic numbers must add up to 200

It's:

Arrow

Tip: Make it 'Narrow' so you also have an atomic symbol (Na)

Weird that it asks for your email before you can test your password

NEAL.FUN*ThePasswordGame1 is a good password.

Nice try...trying to steal my passwords...

[–] dev_null@lemmy.ml 9 points 5 days ago

My guess would be that the password checking feature has a minimum character limit of 4 characters, to avoid false positives on things that aren't actually passwords.

Everyone post your favorite strong password!

No upper case or special chars? Kinky!

[–] Kissaki@programming.dev 1 points 6 days ago (2 children)

How am I supposed to remember those?

On word boundaries? But that would be way too predictable!

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

At once point I realised I need to input some Czech-specific characters on a French AZERTY keyboard.

Yeah, I gave up.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 1 points 6 days ago

What if you made all of the uppercase?

You kid but Zxcvbn deems it an OK enough password (3/4):
