New [CLIENT] Opening But Not Focusing, Causing U To Write U Password Somewhere U Didnt Intend To
E: Just noticed the dumb error in the title, welp. Was out of letters anyways :p
Here is my reddit post on the subject
As someone who writes a relatively long password, very quickly, it sometimes occurs that I write my password somewhere I didn't intend to, simply because the client pops up, as it should, but doesn't actually "Focus", causing the person to write the Password in the previously open chat room (Or comment section, or whatever) Can be YouTube comments, Discord, Skype, Twitch Chat - A lot of public places, some less so. Can also be your word document though, and in that case it probably doesn't matter.
It has happened to me twice, once in twitch chat, another in discord. Changed the password when I wrote it in Twitch chat, was a relatively small stream and I know most of the viewers so I'm not very worried, and the message in Discord was deleted after about 3 seconds, so I'm not worried about that either - What I'm worried about is this happening to people who are less fortunate.
It happens when you are writing somewhere, could even happen to me as I'm writing this, then you open your client, and you "forget" to click on the client (That causes it to focus, but since the old one was automatically in focus, this isn't a habit) you end up writing your password, and you don't notice that it actually didn't write anything, until you realise the client isn't loading you in, and then realise you just wrote your super secret password in PewDiePie's YouTube comments, or whatever, right. I think this is an issue. I'm done here. : ^)
