I didn't mention that the use of different passwords for each website is recommended, nice to mention it!
Your method is a nice way to handle multiple websites issue, like for dev.to it will be Dv or something like that.
Current guidelines suggest not having a new password for each website, as you can forget it and through frustration remove all safety precautions.
A better solution would be to have 3 interchangeable characters and use the website names shorthand for it. I.e:
If you have a password like fg24f!hyn% Add 3 letters for what website: fg24f!HYn%fac (Facebook), fg24f!HYn%twt (Twitter), fg24f!HYn%gth (GitHub).
That way you have learned a master password, and then just remember what website you're trying to log in to... Which hopefully isn't difficult!
Thanks. Yeah, that's exactly what I was getting at.
