Hugh mistake by whoever started the protest to have an end date for it. Now only a fraction of the ~8000 subs that planned to go blackout indefinitely has remained private. The protest has achieved nothing and Reddit will continue doing its things. Not to disregard the efforts but this is definitely not the right way to protest.

    It took me a couple of days to decide to make an account here, I am reaching my limits with creating passwords for all my accounts and remembering them, but since I spent almost all my Reddit time in r/Warframe, it was the logical next step.

        I have no idea how password managers work, and I feel that if it goes wrong, all my different passwords will be out.

          A local password manager, eg KeePass, is easy to use. At most basic, think of it like a spreadsheet that you save with a password. Managers add a bunch of features on top of that basic concept.

          1. You start it, you create a big password/phrase to encrypt it with (This is probably the hardest part, write it down somewhere until you’re confident remembering it)
          2. Record your existing accounts
          3. Create new accounts and/or update old passwords with new randomized (you can customize how) passwords, meaning each account has a password that can be breached without consequence
          4. Your database file, since it is encrypted, can be stored in a cloud provider for backup/easy access
          5. Improve integration with your browser or phone with extensions or apps that can read the database you made (For KeePass, there’s a few of each. I use KeePassium on iOS)
