Why does #Devrant (idk if #'s are a thing here) not have a confirm password field?

Come on... I doubt it annoys users and it saves people a lot of hassle, especially when we are logging in on multiple devices :/ I know lots of people who type their password wrong the first time and later on they can't login and get frustrated and confused then end up resetting via email.

Also why no login with Google etc~ that's kinda annoying too...

    I kind of the like the simplicity, I don't have to type the password twice. Also, I don't think most of the people type their password wrong first time, that's ridiculous.

    But, like you said, if you hit it wrong, you can reset it with email. That's something you should be willing to pay when you are too lazy to type the password carefully.

    I'd say simply because it decreases usability for more users. Assuming the large majority of people who sign up input their passwords correctly, then it would be bad usability to make them type it twice when the people who input it wrong can just reset their password with minimal hassle anyway.
