I can't read what you wrote I see only *******
Yep, can confirm, that’s the most secure password, and using it is a pretty fundamental infosec standard practice

Hey how'd you get your username to be *******?
Because itd the only password that is immune from the auto-obfuscation most websites have. If you write your password it will detect it and replace it with stars, normally
Some site should actually implement this😂
I've thought about implementing a message like this when you try to sign up with a very weak password. Never did though.
