Some global users are turning to services like Proton Mail and UpScrolled instead.

Countries are growing uneasy about their dependence on U.S. technology firms.

        My question is how does someone even know the number of accounts they have lmao

        Like, over the past 2+ decades I’ve been using the Internet, I can’t even give an estimate of how many accounts I have.

        This is… completely normal amount of accounts? I am at 1083 saved in my password manager. Admittedly it’s a bit inflated with things like crypto wallets and few dozen passwords for 192.168.1.1 for every router I ever saw. But then, I also been on account deletion spree for a year now and been avoiding making new accounts if at all possible, otherwise I’d easily be over 1500

      it is easy to have 1500+ passwords, I’m online since 1996 :-) and use a password manager like keepass, some sites died, others are still online, i have multiple mailbox, twitter, facebook. it goes up really fast!

      not counting also all SSO with google, apple, and now my own pocketid selfhosted domain :-)

      I will have to remove also those 50+ google authentificator TOTP and replace them with passkeys…

      BTW, it is recommended to use single password per service sinces more than 20 years now, so without a password manager it is impossible to create new accounts. i started in firefox, then chrome password manager, then keepassX …
