      “bUt ItS a SeCuRiTy RiSk.” Yeah maybe when most people were keeping their passwords in a spreadsheet. However now that they are all encrypted in password management programs its a vulnerability. If I can’t generate a 40+ char password for your site then I will not be using your site if I can help it.

        And if I have do, I won’t do anything that’s not a necessity, and I will absolutely not make more than the laziest password I can, because that’s how I give up.

        you are correct that most people dont keep their passwords in spreadsheets. a lot of people prefer a plaintext file on their desktop, or a note in their phones!

        I don’t even think that’s what they were trying to stop, I think they just believe people making bots would only paste.

        In mst cases it’s a simple css property.

        Btw, can webdevs please stop reimplementing scroll via js? Always a slow and buggy mess.
