"Terrible" Passwords

1Password has labeled one of my online account login passwords as "terrible" even though it was created by 1Password. It is long, has upper and lower-case letters, as well as numbers. It doesn't have any special characters. But again, it's the password generated by 1Password, yet labels it as terrible.
This is the first time I have used this community site and have no idea how to find the answer, if and when someone responds.

    Hi @jeffreyrohr! Welcome to the forum!

    This is a bug in the password strength meter, our developers are aware of it and will hopefully have a fix available soon. In the meantime, you don't have to worry: the password is strong, the problem is just with the password strength bar which is not updated appropriately :+1:

    This bug is more than a year old.
    I wanted to check my existing passwords, sorted it by strength and got so many "terrible" passwords (generated by 1 Password) that this is a really futile. Please help your customers eliminate really terrible passwords without a sifting through a plethora of false positives

    Our developers are aware of this @kontrafiktion, hopefully they will have an update soon :)
