I use that too for it's password generation feature.  But even that may scare people off.  You can also suggest winrar or winzip which can add a password to a txt file and wallet backup files.  Again, I think the depth to which this subject/paranoia requires your focus is proportional to how OG you are and whether or not you are a public bitcoin advocate.  If people know your name and face and that you likely have >1000BTC, then yes you must go to great lengths exploring this threat space. Noobs can just run a virus scan, create a wallet, and write everything on paper. Greatest threat, imo, is social engineering or losing/forgetting how to access, NOT hacking or wrench attacks.

I love Lopp, btw.  His guides and sites continue to educate me daily. But I would have gotten into bitcoin earlier had I not gotten cold feet in 2017 when i was reading all this paranoid threat analysis stuff.  Scared me off.

As long as your password manager isn't something that can be hacked or spied on by anyone, that should work.

I only trust open-source password managers.

https://keepassxc.org/ is my favorite.

Isn't the easy solution to suggest the following? I've only been thinking about this for less than 2 years but it's good practical advice.  Maybe not enough for Bitcoin community celebrities, but def enough for no coiners and regular plebs.  Maybe step 0 run malware scanner or do it all in Tails.

1. Use password manager with strong pass.
2. Multiple USB stick backups in different places.
