Indeed, I'm not investing a huge amount in SD due to the risk, my passwords are very secure - but you can never 100% trust server security even if the passwords are hashed

It doesn't matter how secure your passwords are if you re-use them. In my experience watching people trying to crack accounts, I'd say having a weak password is actually better than a super strong reused password. (But of course, you're best off using a password manager or  sha256("super secure password" + siteName) as your password

I'm using LastPass to generate all my passwords and have a different 20+ char password for each account I have. I think thats pretty secure. I never use the same password twice. There is a risk with the LastPass password as the key is encrypted online but requires 2FA and an enormous password to unlock/decrypt.

so many idiots who use the same password on all sites, and then they think that a reputable site such as SD has been hacked and none of the other 20 sites where they use the same password.

Just never use the same password twice, it is among the first things that you learn. Still think SD have a secure system, weakest point is probably the users' password

There are countless stories in this thread and others where peoples password has been compromised because they signed up to a scam site/faucet with the same password and subsequently got hacked.
