PSA: password recovery

in #steemit7 years ago

I recently tried to log in to my steemit account from another device only to realise I have no idea what my password is. As far as I know the recovery password for steemit is very long and complicated. To avoid this I suggest for everybody to secure their passwords now, either on a password saving application or physically within a safe. You can generate a new password simply through clicking on your image and following the prompts on the password tab.

Is this a new feature, because I have not seen it prior to today? Just thought I'd let everyone know.
I highly suggest following steemits password recovery rules

The first rule of Steemit is: Do not lose your password.
The second rule of Steemit is: Do not lose your password.
The third rule of Steemit is: We cannot recover your password.
The fourth rule: If you can remember the password, it's not secure.
The fifth rule: Use only randomly-generated passwords.
The sixth rule: Do not tell anyone your password.
The seventh rule: Always back up your password.
