Having to alter my one generic password I use for random ass website because there's a stupid extra rule is usually annoying me enough that I don't register lmao.

I use it for important things that require actual security. Everything else gets the one password treatment.

In that case consider your accounts on "everything else" to be compromised already. It can be a pretty significant vector for identity theft for example.

I'm not dumb enough to share important private information on websites that don't require it.

I use a mental algorithm that means my password is always different on paper, but is always deducible by me.

honestly I prefer to go the other route : if a website complains about a generic randomly generated password , especially if they have very specific rules I take it as a challenge to make a password with as much entropy as possible , preferably to the point where any reasonable hash can express less entropy
