    The worst one is when it only supports up to like 16 characters but doesn’t tell you so it will only use the first 16 characters and ignore the rest. The next time you need to enter it and get the 64 character password from your password manager it will just say it incorrect and you’re left with no idea on why it’s wrong.

      Sometimes there’s a limit on the length but it’s only imposed by the JavaScript of the website, so I can use my password manager to insert the text directly into the field but I can’t actually type it in.

      I can do you one worse.

      My banking app password was not case sensitive for many, many years. They finally fixed it a few years back though!

      This has happened to me so many times. Frustrating and stupid being belief. Are they hiring 10 year olds to write the html/script? Sheesh.
