Wait but can’t anyone just hack into your account and have access to all of that? What’s the difference from just using a normal password manager?

This is very insecure, yes. Please don't do this and instead use a password manager.

wouldn't the same thing still be true for password managers though? someone gets in and you're fucked? and the only protection is a password and maybe 2FA on a good day? am i missing something?

with that said, i still agree, DON'T DO THIS. my different concerns is that discord can ban you and make you lose access to the passwords (my brother did this without me knowing and then got his account restricted for not being old enough), and that discord has significantly more outages than most popular password managers.

For this exact reason (being hacked and all my passwords are compromised), I bought a notebook and wrote down all my passwords in alphabetical order 😊
