  "textContent": "99% of my passwords are stored in a password manager.\nTo encrypt the vault I obviously need a master password, which I memorized and practice regularly to not forget it.\n\nBut maybe I could forget my master password.\nSo I need to backup it somehow.\n\nI don’t want to have a single piece of paper where the master password is just written down, because if someone finds this, he could directly decrypt my .kdbx file and read all my passwords.\n\nSo I did some research and decided to make a Shamir Secret Sharing.\nBut the problem is that I can’t find a tool where I can put in my master password and get out multiple shares of words.\n\nAll the tools I found, either only accept Hex values, or make undesirable (for my purpose) outputs, like QR codes or Hex values.\nI just want to enter words and get words back that I them can write done on multiple papers.\n\nDoes someone have a solution?\nHow do you backup your master passwords?",
