<h3>FAQ: How secure is the Diceware approach?</h3>
|

|
|

|
If you want the absolute worst password security, go right ahead and use the same password everywhere so that when one service is cracked, an attacker can compromise every account you own. (Plz don't do that)</p>

|
||||||
|
If you want the absolute best security, choose a different password of completely random charcters for each service.</p>

If you want a middle of the raod approach that offers medium security, Diceware is the way to go. I wrote it for people like <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/dmuth/48499048131/in/photosof-dmuth/">my parents</a>, who might struggle with a password manager or not want to enter random characters when trying to enter their Apple password into their Apple TV, or want a password to log into their Mac that they can actually remember and not have to write down.</p>
