Thread is kinda old and already mentioned password managers like Bitwarden. Best is uniquely generated random passwords which the password manager holds. But no one mentions that you still need a master password and this one has to be extremely secure too. You can't just take a hash or just make it completely random, you will never remember it. And if you do happen to memorize it, it's likely not secure enough. The best is a really long phrase that has meaning to you, ex: "The front desk girl in my building is super cute!" Long, easy to remember, relevant to you and only you, and best of all extremely unlikely to ever be guessed by attackers. No need for special symbols all over the place either.

A cool trick I've seen, especially for older relatives who struggle to rememeber individual passwords or whatever is to have a basic password, i.e:

MyBlackCat2024

And modify it for the service you are using, for example, for facebook:

FBMyBlackCat2024

Twitter: TWMyBlackCat2024

Linkedin: LIMyBlackCat2024

This way the password is always rememberable but unique so any automated password checkers will fail when loading the user:pass lists
