I used to do this, but I realized that if someone got access to any of my passwords, they would easily spot the pattern.

In the end, using a password manager and generating large random passwords for each site was the best solution I found.

Still better than using the same password. My argument is if you can only convince them to do at least that, it's better than every site using the same password
