"*******" is a weird password. Aren't there supposed to be letters and numbers ?
Lemmy hides it for us. It's pretty sweet.
I absolutely love that feature. Imagine you accidentally type or paste your ******** into a comment. Now everyone can see your ********! What a banger. But not on Lemmy! It gets masked automatically so that none can see and guess you ********!
If i ever ran a public fedi instance, that top 100 password list would legitimately be in the filter just for shits and giggles.
Don’t worry, my 2FA code is also active. It’s only made out of the digit 5 but I won’t tell anyone the order you have to type them in
