Probably the same ones that block “copy” for when you want to select text.

Those same people think that colorblind people don’t exist and there’s no accessibility reason to select text. 😡

Or even better: the ones that add bullshit like “–Copied from shitheads.xyz” to all copied text

In mst cases it’s a simple css property.

Btw, can webdevs please stop reimplementing scroll via js? Always a slow and buggy mess.

“bUt ItS a SeCuRiTy RiSk.” Yeah maybe when most people were keeping their passwords in a spreadsheet. However now that they are all encrypted in password management programs its a vulnerability. If I can’t generate a 40+ char password for your site then I will not be using your site if I can help it.

I don’t even think that’s what they were trying to stop, I think they just believe people making bots would only paste.

So put a timeout on too many failed logins instead.

you are correct that most people dont keep their passwords in spreadsheets. a lot of people prefer a plaintext file on their desktop, or a note in their phones!

Lifehack: if you use the same password everywhere you don’t have to note anything down.
