      “*******” 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

      All I see is “lol420fuckthePOLICE” does Lemmy automatically hide passwords or something?

        Yeah it has this super innovative feature that looks up passwords and hides them for you. Like, my email password is “trumphasamushroompenis” and it hides it. Cool right?

      The password, as later revealed in the post, was: “lol420fuckthePOLICE!*:)”

      In the article.

          I’m familiar with the meme, I thought the real PW in question was funnier, especially as the user was clearly inebriated when he made it to forget that one.
