My password manager flagged 22 duplicate passwords across my accounts this morning

I was cleaning up my Bitwarden vault and it showed I had reused the same password for 22 different logins, from my old college email to my bank. That's way more than I thought, and it means if one site gets hacked, all those accounts are at risk. Has anyone else had a shock like this when they finally checked their password habits?

Yeah, I used to think one good password was enough for everything.

One password for everything is just asking for trouble honestly. People don't realize until they get hacked or locked out like jade32 said. Using a password manager changed everything for me way better than trying to remember a million different ones. Still can't believe I used the same thing for my bank and my gaming account back then.

My old password was so strong I couldn't even remember it myself. Locked myself out of my own email for a week.
