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.

    The password manager I use lets me create a hierarchy so I can subcategorise. Reading the other comments here suggests that it’s not a unique feature and so I’ll hazard a guess that most of them can do the same thing.

    It also supports different databases if you really want to go that route, but since that means you’ll need a different password for each one, you’re undoing some of the work of having a password database in the first place… unless you intend to have a master password database with a master master password. That just hurts my head to think about.
