- victorbjorklund 1y agoWhy do you need spaces in the password? Honestly never ever thought about using spaces in the password.
- fallingknife 1y agoDisallowed characters like that give the impression that plaintext passwords are being stored.
- Hendrikto 1y agoWhy would they disallow it? It’s just a character like everything else.
- ManBeardPc 1y agoUX. People accidentally adding whitespace by copy&pasting it. Easy to overlook and probably lead to some customers being confused. Also people use whitespace to separate words in text. Most password managers don't generate passwords with whitespace by default.

- illiac786 1y agoI think the better question is, are they the only ones not taking passwords?
