It’s okay. And being a masochist, you’ll love having to use your password multiple times per session, you know, for security. My advice is choose a password that’s easy to type in because you’ll be doing it a lot.

mine’s pretty easy to remember and type- i don’t have to use it much- i automatically log in without having to use password- th only time i have to use it is for like installing something from synaptic, or running commands every now and again in terminal.

On the link to Chrome- I believe you need to create a sim link-

Right click on the exe- choose ‘make a link’- then drag the new icon to your desktop- this creates a symbolic link to the file

That's strange. I use linux all day every day and rarely have to enter my password more than once a week unless I'm doing some serious tinkering.

I would actually recommend that your password be fairly long and strong. You don't have to change it often, so your fingers will soon learn even rather lengthy passwords.
