i love being forced to choose from a shallow pool of "security" questions that anyone who remotely knows me will be able to answer. what's my mother's maiden name? what elementary school did i go to? even sherlock loving holmes won't be able to crack those

yeah i hate that too. hence why i choose random answers that have nothing to do with the question. hence why i have the awkward phone call with the FAA where, after they confirm my identity, they say that the phone number of the house i grew up in was "cheesy on my peeny"

i like the places where you can assign your own security question, because i can make it something like a dumbass inside joke from high school that i will never ever forget and which zero other people will ever understand.

lord snarfleface von goodboy, first of his name, eater of snacks, dog of the bowwows and the first pups

or whatever dumb poo poo goes straight from my brain to the password manager. it's madlibs for nerdy adults

that’s still using passwords, which is dumb. your password manager should be able to generate a public key for each site. they can then authenticate you without relying on SSL to secure the authentication.
