   Why did every login page become two separate pages with two 'submit' buttons (one for the username, followed by a *separate page load* just for the password)?

   I dimly remember when a couple of sites started doing it, but it's *everywhere* now, and it doesn't seem like it's for any good reason. (You can just check the name and stop if it's not valid!)

   It seems like one of those UI tics that every designer feels the need to ape because…Amazon does it? Idk.

   Here's an idea: CUT THAT SHIT OUT.

     @kadin @craigmaloney Because it depends on the account what type of authentication is used, e.g. password, passkey, biometric, external auth provider etc.

     I hate it too but I get the logic behind behind it.
