To many technological illiterate people I have suggested using a password manager (bitwarden) but turns out they already have a password manager: Google. They have Chrome store and sync their passwords. Not sure if it allows generating strong passwords though.
I'm pretty sure that Chrome's built-in password manager recommends random passwords for new sites.
Honestly I usually recommend the built-in password manager to people. That way they font need to set up anything new. Chrome's isn't great because it isn't end-to-end encrypted but it is way better than not using one and works pretty seamlessly. Plus it also works on Android. Firefox's password manager is fantastic but takes a little work to set up in Android.
