I've not found anything better. Storing on my computer, or worse someone else's computer, doesn't seem safe.
The trick is to use code language, and don't forget the code. Then you can use digital sources more freely, I feel.
My ex kept her's in an unprotected excel file. I never peeked, I was just surprised when I saw her accessing it on her laptop.
All the effort of inputting data into a password manager, but none of the security.
It really depends what the user fills it with. "Clever" solutions like using your daughter's birthday, or other hard-to-remember-but-easy-to-deduce strings.
