@fatsam I use the notes feature in my password manager (Bitwarden) and generate random passphrases for the answers to each question.

@wfryer Wow, I had totally forgotten about this Mastodon account! 😎

Anyway, thanks for the shout out! I haven't checked to make sure the process still works or if there is now a better way, so also, thanks for the reminder!

@aral would a Docker or Snap install be better? It would make updates easier.

@wfryer unroll.me sells your info. This just came out this week where Uber was buying Lyft receipt emails from unroll.me. It's anonymize, but it made people very nervous.

PSA: If you have the Wordpress Jetpack log in working under PHP5.9, and upgrade to PHP5.6 but don't install php5.6-xml, it will still appear to work except that Google can no longer see your site's posts.

@wfryer I don't think I can automate upgrades. I got burned by an update to plugins last night on https://eduk8.me. The Sendgrid plugin started to require php 5.6, and I only had php 5.5.9 (close, but no cigar).

So then I had to take 30 minutes to upgrade php 5.6 and make sure it didn't break anything. :-(

@wfryer What tools are you using to manage that many sites? I'm playing around with wp-cli, which lets me check updates and upgrade from the command line.
