Like many of you out there, I use an encrypted keychain to manage credentials, so remembering all of my passwords is no longer a problem. Unfortunately, those long, secure passwords I like to use are really annoying to read and type in situations where I can't auto-fill them from my keychain. This is a particular annoyance with air-gapped or legacy systems where I have to read stuff like this off of my phone screen:

Minor annoyance, sure, but easily solved. The Easy-Type password generator uses only grade-6 and under vocabulary words and short numbers to provide a password with a good amount of entropy but one that can be very easily read and typed:

The word list is currently 634 words long and the generator spits out 4 (pseudo)random words and inserts a (pseudo)random number between 1-99 into the mix as well.
