    Has to be 16 characters

    So long as I can use more than that, I won’t complain. I don’t remember the service, but I definitely remember one where they wouldn’t allow over a certain amount of characters and that was annoying because that was when I was still using repeat passwords back in highschool. My preferred password at the time was roughly 20 characters, but apparently that was too much because who cares about security, am I right?

      It used to be a thing more often, but for a long time even when youre logging in via a website, there were (and probably still are) legacy backend systems that have limits on the password length.
