Showerthought: everyone says to use a password manager, but I went with a physical notebook for my main accounts.

After my phone bricked last week and I was locked out of everything for 8 hours, I realized I needed a backup that doesn't rely on a single device or service, so I keep my 15 most important passwords in a small book in a locked drawer at home. Has anyone else chosen a low-tech backup over going all-in on a digital manager?

Just make sure you don't write "this is my password book" on the cover.

Haha "password book" on the cover... I saw a post once where someone actually wrote "not my passwords" on their notebook, like that's any better.
