Does anyone ever actually fill out those "security questions" on websites with real data, or am I the only person whose first train trip was to 98pya24uigac, was born in u98pawriluhfwe, and loves following the sportsball of the 9oh8awefkjb?

@anthracite I really should use those “wish it were two-factor” questions as places to add additional random passwords but keeping those in password managers is so difficult :/

@fluffy

I just generate more random gibberish and stick them in LastPass' 'notes' field for the site.

@anthracite I tried LastPass but I really dislike its UX. I used to use 1Password (which does support notes/security questions) but then it went subscription and got expensive. These days I use Firefox Lockwise because it works everywhere I need it to, but the downside is no notes field.
