nostr:npub1j46f9va5qdrmamcwmncew7g8mwekgma386dhws6k04fsnlkqpcpsj23gm7 one side effect of two password fields is that it's much easier for the user to differentiate between "sign up" and "login" pages if *the rest of the page is badly designed*.

I've accidentally used the "sign up" page to try and login to quite a few sites where the signposting is bad & there are the same email/password fields on both pages. "Account already exists with that username" <- I know, I'm trying to login to it!!

Arguably it's a different root issue, but nonetheless is uncovered by single password fields and is an interesting observation from experience.
