Protip for the room: Use a password manager with a unique password for every service. Then when one leaks, it only affects that singular service, not large swaths of your digital life.
Also, length is most of what matters. A full length sentence in lowercase with easy to type finger/key flow for pw manager master, and don't know a single other password. Can someone correct me if I'm wrong?
You are mostly correct it is length * (possible char values).
See passphrase generator.
