Just realized most people reuse passwords way more than I thought

I was reading that Google survey from 2023 and it said 65% of people use the same password across multiple accounts. That honestly scared me because if one site gets hacked, they have the keys to everything. Have you guys started using a password manager yet or are you still on the old system?

Most people reuse passwords" is the part that gets me. I'm curious though, how many of those people got burned by a data breach before they finally started using a password manager? I know for me it took getting an email about my old MySpace password being leaked to finally switch. You think most people have to get stung once before they change their habits, or are some just lucky enough to never have it happen?

MySpace breach hit me too, but I still use the same three passwords.
