So I tried to login and got a message that an administrator had likely reset my password. Did this occur automatically? Is it something that's happening to multiple users? I'm in now, obviously, but I am curious about what happened.
I thought maybe it was making the password protocol mandatory - my old password was rejected for use again as being too simple ...
Software developers should learn already that if people are fine with weak passwords, then they're fine with it and that's the end of discussion. Like maybe because the benefit of not having to remember or write down a complex password dramatically outweighs the possibility of the account getting hacked.
"Protecting" people from themselves all over again, what a cancer.

write it on a piece of paper and put it on the wall. just camouflage into some other piece of information such as a phone number or an appointment, a restaurant flyer etc.

Those come with their risks though, like putting all eggs into single basket.
Actually you can have an encrypted local database... Make it a sha256 or better encryption and good luck to anyone trying to break your database
