For those who may be averse to cloud-based password vaults, here is a cake-and-eat-it-too solution.

The other great idea I read a long time ago came from Rachel Tobac: salt your passwords with a short bit you have committed to memory. This means the passwords stored in the vault are incomplete; you manually enter your 'salt' at the beginning or end of the stored password when logging in. If your vault is ever compromised, the passwords are useless.

yeah, this like lo-fi 2FA... somethin you have is the password safe and somethin you know is the "salt"

actual MFA is obv better, but this is a nifty lil trick

Well, still do the 2FA in addition. It doesn't have to be one or the other. ¿Por que no los dos?
