One other security tip: if you’re using a password manager (and you must use one if you want to take this seriously), in addition to unique usernames, unique passwords (as long and complex as the given site will allow), and 2FA that isn’t text message based wherever possible, you can do one more thing to harden your logins:
Use the password generator to generate your “answer” to those security questions like “What was the name of your high school mascot?” Something like:
*MmHMPkwJJX2Ny6fBm_s.vQsiR
is never going to be guessed, researched, cross-linked, or socially engineered. Just generate new “answers” for every site, every question.
My manager allows me to add multiple sections with multiple fields per saved password entry. So I have a “Security questions” section and under it I have separate entries for each question they ask. All saved under the entry “Parler” or whatever.
