Password Strength: Medium
✅ More than 8 characters
✅ At least one number
❌ At least one special character
❌ At least one capital letter

When I wasnt using a password manager for password creation I just did random sentences that were not allowed to have meaning. They were quite easy to memorize because they were so absurd. Usual password check would be 3 trillion trillion years or something.
