(Still remember: if they have a password length limit, they store the password in plain text! If they do that in the backend. They can do that in the frontend too, in the browser with javascript, which is safe.)

Lemmy-UI has a password limit of 60 characters. Does that mean they are storing your password in plain text?

I think they could also check that length with Javascript in the browser. Dont know, you should ask the devs.

You are right and that's exactly what happens in your 16 char example.
