#website authentication forms clear when activating input fields: that's #badux because I have hundreds of passwords and you just made it impossible for me to use my password manager. Back to reusing simple passwords? #cybersecurity

👨🏻🦲 Me when I go to a restaurant website: I want to look at your hours and menu.
🕸️ The website: You want a modal dialog that prompts you to subscribe to my newsletter, right?
👨🏻🦲: Fuck you, stop that bullshit.

I am so goddamned sick of sites that want to mail me a link or a code, instead of just letting me fill in a password.
I mean, why let me use the password manager *built into my browser* when you could add the friction of making me shift over to my email program just to get your damn link?
Making my life harder and less convenient will never make me happy.

Huh, that was quick. The Claude desktop app didn't even finish the Cowork onboarding steps and it used the whole session limit. It just stopped with an error. Such a bad user experience. It's not fun anymore.

HOLY FUCK, this dumb-arse payslip system (which I've been using for several years).
Me: *logs in*
System: You need to change your password every 180 days! You can't use any of your last 13 passwords!
Me: *generates new random password*
System: Thank you! You are now logged out.
Me: *logs in*
System: This is the first time that you've logged in to view payslips (or your email or password recently changed) so we need you to tell us your National Insurance Number.
Me: I wonder which of those it could be 🙄And this is on top of the fact that they switch from proper 2FA to code-by-email about a year back 😐

How I HATE the "new" GUI pattern (that must come from Gnome, I presume) that a dialog window from an app can not be moved around without moving the parent window with it.
That's the whole point of a dialog window… Otherwise, you should have replace the window by the dialog content.
But if I want to move the dialog window, it's because I want to see what's underneath, so don't attach the move of the parent to the dialog, it defeats the purpose and makes me want to throw my computer away.

Okta, for an authentication system, has so many rough edges and bad user experiences.
In the portal, and click the Sign Out button? Yeah, doesn't do anything.
Already logged in, but touching something that requires 2FA? Tell the user that, and give them options on what 2FA to trigger.
My org doesn't allow Windows Hello, so if I login with that, having Okta Verify pop up, with a big "Windows Hello confirmation <disabled>" doesn't help me, I can't use that to 2FA.

My wife has gone to bed early, so it's time to watch some #WarhammerTV!
Except it has once again logged me out, because reasons.
The last thing you want on a TV app is to be frequently logged out! 🙄
Edit: And my phone was logged out. And you get the "enter a code" before you get the login. So you think it might be okay.
