    unless you’re using a password manager capable of tracking those for you.

    Doesn’t every password manager have a “notes” field these days?

      I’ve only used Bitwarden, so I can’t speak to the others, but Bitwarden does, yeah.

      But to the average person, “password manager” is whatever their browser does for them, and I’m not sure those have much more functionality beyond username/password and ID fields.

      You replied to the wrong guy, but I think they rather meant it as “unless you’re using a password manager (…because password managers are generally capable of storing extra data)”. 😅

      I mean, even if it can’t store extra data in one entry, you could still create multiple entries for a single account and just name the entries similarly.

      And to give an example of a password manager intentionally kept so simple that, well, there is a solution, but it is somewhat choose-your-own-adventure: https://www.passwordstore.org/#organization
      (You can get GUIs for it, which may have a premade solution after all, for example: https://f-droid.org/packages/app.passwordstore.agrahn )
