I use a password manager and all my passwords go into a single password database. It doesn’t matter if something was important (e.g banking) or less important (e.g one time use for a forum).

I am thinking about separating into multiple data bases. Something like:

  • personal data
  • hobbies
  • finance stuff
  • throw_away (one time use for forums / downloads …)

I want to get some inspiration and ideas how to separate the passwords.

    Will the categories actually help? I mostly find that I search for the username or site name, and then it doesn’t really matter if they’re in a folder.

    Also this is a rrrrreal nitpick but if you’re keeping them in the database, are they really throwaway?
