Same, just gotta watch out for sites that don’t support it and don’t tell you that they don’t. I got into a password reset loop with a site once, until I realized it was truncating my 20 character password to their supported max of 16. They never said the max was 16, and never game an error that 20 wasn’t allowed. Just simply an asshole design. I probably could check bitwarden for whatever password I changed the most and see if it’s still an issue with the site.

I consider this lazy programming. I’ve had it happen a few times but luckily it has been rare for me.

Reddit used to do that but silently truncated at 20.

I usually generate 16 characters password for this reason.
