Safari not recommending passcodes

I have been using safari recommend passcodes for sometime now but all of a sudden, I cannot force safari to recommend a secure passcode on a majority of the sites I use. Nothing has changed since the last passcode safari recommended. Any ideas 💡 I even tried creating new accounts on the most common sites I know of and safari will not recommend a new password. For example, macrumors, Gmail, yahoo and a few others.

Try double clicking the Home button and swipe Safari upwards. Go to Settings/Safari and clear History and Website Data. Open Safari and test.

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.
