Jenny 🏳️🌈Developers who prevent users from pasting text into a password field deserve a special place in hell.
Seriously what the fuck are they even thinking when they implement bullshit like that. Don't they know that password managers are a thing?
hansenerd@HackyScientress "best" excuse I heard, so far: our password policy forbids users from saving their password" 😫

@HackyScientress At least still better than reading your clipboard automatically and insert in into thr password field + (probably sending amy other clipboard content to a server).

@HackyScientress FWIW this became a thing because other apps could read the clipboard and get your password. However, so far CTL-v still works in every case I've found where right-click paste didn't, which makes me question those devs, and their management, even more.
@Xantulon oh no in that case that didn't work too. You can register a on_paste event handler on form fields in JavaScript and then discard the input, that's what the Square Enix devs did. You can easily remove the event handler with the dev console but it's still super annoying.
Andrei Beliak@HackyScientress imho some dedicated API which controls the access to apps sensitive data (and delegates requests to the os permissions system) could solve that problem, and also make the whole platform better from security perspective.
@HackyScientress I've come to believe that it is some bullshit "anti brute force" measurement but like super super low effort
deejoe@HackyScientress yeah one of the things that screams out to me for a hall of shame
AB3 🤔 @HackyScientress Then there are the ones that you can autofill with a password manager, but disable the 'submit' because they don't think you've typed anything. So you need to delete one character and add it again manually.
@ds oh yes those are hella annoying too
