    I hate how companies act like our mommies and daddies needing to protect us. I should be able to make my password “coolguy” or “password” (not that I ever would) and if I get hacked that’s MY fault. It’s so annoying how it gets more and more complex as time goes on. I hate having to make it 90 characters long with 3 social securitiy numbers 10 special characters 3 katakana and 5 hiragana characters and at least 2 characters in Cyrillic

      Gives you absurd password requirements
      Immedately leaks all your personal data by storing in planetext with no real security

      Tbf, I hate the maximum password character limit even more.

      Like WTF even is that.

      Minumum, I get it.

      Maximum?!? 🤣 WTF LOL

        Those sites are probably storing it in plaintext instead of hashing it like they’re supposed to, and so they set upper char limits. That makes it worse.
