I always liked the 1Password word passwords… you select the number of words and it generates each word in upper OR lowercase, and connect them with symbols or numbers. Easy to memorize, and better then keepass or others that use more fixed formats: same characters between words and words are just in title format where the first letter is upper case and rest is lowercase.

I’ve been using 1Password since 2008 and didn’t even know this was an option. It defaulted to complete randomness and I always just left it there. Typically not an issue, but it is annoying on the rare occasion I need to type something. I’ll have to consider this when making new accounts in the future, or updating old ones.
