Does it matter? I mean is there another way of entering this string which preserves the spaces, or is deleting them just part of the hash function?

- rossng 7y agoYes, you can paste a string with internal spaces. I guess you can also disable JS and type whatever you want. Passwords with spaces work absolutely fine, too - it's just the signup form that is broken.
- Faark 7y agoThey probably had to many people accidentally copy-pasting strings with spaces into the form. Like the good old "double click to select a word" also picking up the space after the word. The reason I can empathize with your complain is it being highly unlikely they are able to keep those restrictions consistent across all password forms & login methods.
