Get. A. Password. Manager. Dashlane is very easy to generate and save strong passwords for any site you shop on, plus it can save credit card details to autofill.

I haven't purchased anything from Amazon in three years. Getting stuff directly from the manufacturer is a better experience for products where you know what brand you want anyway. Bookshop.org for books. Best Buy for electronics. Wayfair or Overstock for home goods. It's genuinely not any less convenient when you consider the amount of trash and fake reviews you have to wade through on Amazon these days.

A password manager doesn't replace that Amazon is a marketplace with thousands up on thousands of products in one location for users to search through.

The person you are replying to is less thinking about entering passwords and more about "now my personal details are across multiple different services half of which I don't remember their names"
