Nothing enrages me more than a password character limit. Thank you for making sure my password is LESS secure with your idiotic requirements based on security recommendations that are at least a decade old.
How about… an undisclosed character limit? We’ll just keep telling you your password is invalid until you figure out the max length.
Fun fact, this is a feature of Lemmy:
- Lemmy has an undisclosed password limit of 60 characters.
- Lemmy’s signup form will silently truncate passwords longer than 60 characters to 60 characters.
- Lemmy’s login form will crash when passwords longer than 60 characters are submitted.
Someone please submit a PR
Just move to kbin.
banks using EXACTLY 8 character passwords 💀 (srsly)
I just use the KeePassXC password generator. :)
Way too often I’ve had websites complain that the input password is too complex, and I have to dial down the settings.
Creating a password is as easy as clicking generate in my password manager - y’all should use one too
Reminds me of “The Password Game” 😂
My bank requires your password to contain NO vowels. I always forget when I update the password (forced to every 3 months) and the error never mentions it.
I’m struggling to think why this would be a thing. The only guess I have is someone was told to enforce “no dictionary words in a password” and saw that as an ‘easier’ way to implement?
