That's not true, though. You would still have to either press tab (now enter), or click the second field to enter the password.

- Veratyr 11y agoIt's very true. The click isn't the problem, the "waiting for transition between pages" is the problem. Type username/password = ~1s each Single keypress = ~0.1s each Page load = ~2s Before: username + tab + password + enter = 1 + 0.1 + 1 + 0.1 + 2 = ~2.2s After: username + enter + page load + password + enter = 1 + 0.1 + 2 + 1 + 0.1 + 2 = ~4.2s Roughly doubling the amount of time it takes to enter your information is significant and annoying.

- Veratyr 11y agoIt depends greatly on your location, connection and browser. Many users are stuck on low quality internet connections or mobile devices where things can easily take a full second or more.
