Just realized I've been using the same main password for 8 years, and my password manager says it's been in 14 data breaches lol

That password is basically public property at this point. The real question is how many of your accounts still use it. Time for a full reset everywhere.

Public property" is right, @ward.anna. It's wild how one leaked password can show up everywhere. I see it with my crew's old work logins for supplier sites they never updated. People just set it once and forget, whether it's for some pizza delivery app from 2018 or a forum for a TV show that got canceled. That "full reset everywhere" feels impossible because you don't even remember all the doors that key still opens.

How many of your other accounts are still tied to that old password? I had the same thing happen and found it on a bunch of old forum logins I forgot about. You really do need to hunt them all down and change them.
