I will NEVER understand this one. Do they want me to pick a shitty password? I'm not gong to type a string of of 20 mixed-case and special characters into a private text box on my phone. It always takes 3 or 4 tries to even get it right.
- hot_gril 2y agoAn alphanumeric password doesn't have to be bad or hard to remember. Mixed case and symbols don't add much security. But still, should be paste-able.
- babypuncher 2y agoThe problem is that I always generate a strong password with KeePassXC on my laptop, and I don't know about how bad the mobile sign in experience is until it's too late. And many systems require mixed case and/or special characters, so my password generator is configured to add these by default. This user-hostile UX decision is simply unjustifiable. It's baffling how this even gets past code review.
