Hi, clockwise_bit here.

I might have fucked up something, or something might be wrong elsewhere, I don’t know. What I know is that I just tried to log in multiple times and I wasn’t able to make it past the login page. The message says wrong password, but I’m fairly certain I didn’t change it because I use a password manager and the history is untouched. I doubt something happened to the db because syncthing (which I use to share the db with all my devices) didn’t log it’s update.

I cannot request a password reset from the form because, my bad, I didn’t put an email when registering. I was sure nothing like this would happen. Still, would it be possible to check if everything’s alright on your side? @nutomic@lemmy.ml @dessalines@lemmy.ml

Thanks in advance for your time. Shouldn’t it be possible to do anything, I’ll just use this account for the forseeable future.

    That was it then. We added limits on both the front and back end but it hasn’t been deployed yet.

      Huh, so I never entered the full password.
      I just tried forcing the field visible, and the password is being truncated at 60 chars.
      Damn dots, I didn’t notice. Also, keepass autotyper doesn’t know the password isn’t being inserted, so that explains why nothing made sense. I feel better knowing the pass db integrity is not compromised. Thanks for that, really!

      I know I’m repetitive, but if it’s not a planned functionality and unless there is a reason I’m unaware of that explains why it’s counterproductive, giving the user the ability to temporarily show the password in the input field might help in these cases.
