Fuck but I do have totp already enabled should I just change my password?
Edit: my paranoia got to me I'm gonna just reset my totp seeds and change my password. Some of the info was fake so that'll protect me a bit. Guess that's the best you can do for now
Edit 2: they made it a pain in the ass to change your password apparently now they favor only 20 characters max (rip my 35 character password). A nice warning on their website would've been really helpful
That just screams they're not storing passwords properly. If you're salt+hashing your passwords, they could throw Hamlet into the password field and the only limit is how big the text entry field can be. The output is a fixed length string, so I put length should be immaterial.
