>managing strong unique passwords for hundreds of accounts across desktop, mobile, servers,
I have a couple of dozen unique passwords. The ones I use most frequently are easily remember with pass phrases and all are written down on a couple of sheets of paper.
>and other devices is a major pain and I’m tired of dealing with it.
You are free to sacrifice security for convenience, but don't cry about it when your security is compromised because you consider maintaining your security too much of a hassle.
>It’s human nature to take shortcuts and develop bad habits when you’re dealing with a flawed system and poor tools that puts the burden on the end user to manage this.
I would argue that outsourcing your "security" to a third party is a shortcut and a bad habit that compromises your security. If you can't be bothered to worry about your own security because you find it too much of a hassle, then you have nobody to blame but yourself when your security is compromised.
>And if I’m struggling with four decades of experience, how is the average non tech user expected to do it?
Most non-tech users don't have hundreds of accounts to manage. I would hope and expect that even non-tech users have the ability to use a paper and pencil, and write down their passwords. At what point are responsible, sentient adults expected to take responsibility for themselves and their own security?
>May I ask how you accomplish this without any sort of burden?
Being an adult who is responsible for yourself is a necessary burden. This is also true for your own security.
