    I used to be something back in the day... I lost everything. Wish I could return 2012, I was so hopeful of the future.

    The good thing is that database idea I had 10 years ago is still relevant today. Not just for trackers - for any type of accounts. KeePass is good but only for passwords. It lacks proper fields for phone, email, alias/username, recovery code, procedures, etc. You can add them as custom fields but it's so tedious to mange them. And there is a performance problem with KeePass.. when going over a certain number of entries, it starts to be sluggish on saves/loads. This is also true for references, stay away from them - performance wise it is much better to just duplicate an entry rather than add a reference to it.

    Anyway, I'm working on the new database for all accounts and not just trackers. And a CRUD to go with it.

    //LE: I still remember the name I used for the tracker management: Directorate of Demand, short form: DD. It used have a fleet of 30 gmail addresses, with another 10 as throwaway. One main account to dump all mail to. Had random name generators, random password generators, the database used to give a random mail based on previous account usage fully balanced so that each mail account would have an equal number of accounts attached to it. Everything written by me. Even had randomikers for options such as, avatar, signature - set or not, and details to set.
    On some trackers I was named a piller of their community. I used to chat with staff people while I was cheating. And it was just myself and one other man, a friend whom a lost all contact a few years back. We were pumping next to 1TB a day to multiple trackers.
    It was clockwork. A well oiled machine...

    Well, apparently the setup I'd already been using for 4 years on 2012 still holds up today. For non-tracker accounts, however, I keep a simple text file. It's easier and faster since there aren't any notes to store and updates are rare.

    Your friend was suicided by PTP staff with 7 gunshots to the back of the head. You're next.

    It's funny how much thoughts some of you put into this.

    I just use browser bookmarks (grouped by folders) for my current trackers and a password-manager (Bitwarden) to store the credentials. That's basically it.

    I also don't track banned trackers, because there are just some and the majority doesn't even exist anymore.

    It's hard to get a password generator right. I hope you have the cryptographic knowledge to do this right.
