    If you disable pasting in your password field, I hate you. I hate you even more if you don't have a "show password" button so I can verify that I'm typing my password correctly since you won't let me paste

    Agree. Giving side eye to Apple on latest MacOS version. My passwords are alphabet soup and I want to just a mouse-over to show and proof. Plus make the field big enough for a good PW. Mine are usually 20 to 26 characters. If the front disappears, I can hardly proof it.

      @brainblasted there's a special place in hell, right after people that don't let you type out a date but force a date picker at you

        @brainblasted The next after that are those who mark the username field as a password or remove the ability to use a password.
        I hate making me wait for your email.

          @brainblasted Do you know what a bookmarklet is? It's a tiny javascript that you can add to your bookmarks at the top of the page. Instead of having an URL in the target, you add this script.
          If you click on the link, it will find all password fields on the page and turn it into a regular input field to make the content visible. It is harmless and has no impact on the workings of the page

          ```
          javascript:(function(){
          document.querySelectorAll('input[type="password"]').forEach(el => el.type = 'text');})()
          ```

                        @brainblasted My previous bank has not only disabled "paste" in their iOS banking app login - they even implemented their *OWN ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD* for passwort entry.. (and that one was hardcoded to German qwertz layout ..)

                            @brainblasted Ctrl-V generally works.
                            And I never had an issue with the Auto-type from KeePass...

                              @brainblasted still better than the (mostly banking) sites that encourage you to set a complex password and then ask for the 3rd, 13th and 47th letter only

                                  Fun times: the official Indian evisa website forces a date picker, which shows up localised for American-style MM-DD-YYYY, and then when you hit "next", complains that the format must be DD-MM-YYYY. (I suppose only if you are lucky enough that then day is the 13th or later — otherwise, it probably just submits the wrong thing!)

                                        @brainblasted I have resorted sometimes to literally editing the source code of the page. It sometimes works.

                                          @haayman @brainblasted Ever clicked on a link and couldn't go back anymore? Like when following a search result.

                                          @thaodan @brainblasted only when it's opened in a new tab or window. That's normal behaviour. Sometimes search-engine let you choose whether or not to open a result in a new tab or stay in the same tab.

                                          I do sometimes see behaviour where you can click around between e.g. photos in an article where the back-button goes back to the previous image, instead of to the previous article. In that case I really wish they didn't do that
