What is this nonsense with having the login and password on separate pages?!
Didn't anyone teach these kids you can put multiple form elements on the same page?!
Is this some kind of new silly security tap-dance I missed or is it yet another attempt to trash the web site and make people use your "app" (which is actually just the web page wrapped up in another damn thing you have to constantly update)?
@praxeology There once was a legitimate reason, for phishing prevention - showing you some information specific to you entering your username, so that a phishing page would need to actually talk to the origin server and couldn't just be a static page or simple script, making it harder to build one.
But now with ready-made phishing toolkits being widely available, and most split-form sites not actually doing the 'showing information about you' bit, I don't think that's the reason anymore; my suspicion is that the newer cases are the outcome of "UX" folks who entirely rely on A/B tests... which often results in weird and frustrating outcomes like this.
@Rairii @praxeology That seems like it could be done much better by dynamically replacing the password field upon detecting an affected username
