My theory is that Voyager can't handle an 80+ char PW and fails on it due to the proper.
Thanks, yeah it looks like the reason it doesn't work is lemmy-ui clips the password to 60 characters. So your password actually isn't 80 characters, it's 60. Which is a poor design on the part of Lemmy but is easy enough for Voyager to fix by mimicking that behavior and clipping the entered password to 60 characters.
Edit: It will be fixed in the next version, releasing now.
No where did I know about the limit. Limiting passwords so anachronistic and suicidal, I wonder who I school against exactly that...
Anyway, thank you for that and schooling me on that. LOL
In the mean time I guess that you could copy the 1st 60 characters of your password to login.
Edit - you can go to the lemmy github if you to air your grievance over the restriction of password length.
On a personal note, how much extra protection does a 80+ length give over a 60 character one¿?
Depends on nothing I give a shit about. I always go well over the bridge. My paranoia exists by choice, not reason.
I've changed my password to 60 chars. Voyager still doesn't log in for whatever reason.
