I don't remember which website, but there is one where both sign-up and log-in pages look the same. If you fill your username and password in the sign-up page, but you already have that account they log you in instead. If you put the details in the log-in page but that account doesn't exist they send you to the full sign-up page.
I thought that's pretty neat.

Back in my day, the BBS forum would send you an email with your username and a password they chose, and you could change it later if you wanted to, but nobody ever did.
It was a delightfully innocent time. I liked the ones that got creative with their passwords, like AOL.

I write my email in the login field but my password manager doesn't show me a password. I click "i forgor" button. Now I must type my email again. No one knows why.

this is a rant about microsoft
how on the fucking earth are you the biggest company and have hands down the worst login imaginable. you know for a fact people have multiple accounts for your platform, it's incredibly common to have a work specific micorosoft account after all. AND YET you lock in a specific email for login??? and you don't even put a bloody "i'd like to log in with a different email"???? oh there's a "use a different login method" button it's all okay right? wrong that button still doesn't let you change the login email! but now you can log in with a code sent to it :).
what if that """""convenience"""" you're trying to give people by checks notes, not including an incredibly common button that takes you to the default login page without a specific email baked into it, is actually an impossible pain in the ass? what if that email is someone else's and then just hit the "remember me" out of habit? go fuck yourself :). go into the browser setting and manually delete the cookies or if you can't or don't know how to do that then just fuck yourself
not to even fucking mention how if you try to log into teams desktop client app that info is going to get fucking applied to the entire windows account??? without asking about it clearly either it just fucking does that! it just fucking links to your local account instsntly
who asked for that microsoft? what deranged motherfucker in your board of directors came in high off his tits and uttered the cursed phrases needed for those feature to fucking exist?
and is that guy the only one allowed to speak? the only who's vocabulary extends past "great idea! let's do that"?
how is your user account management worse and more annoying than any virus i had?
i literally just needed to log in to someone's account once, for an hour, to substitute for them in one call. and that silly little action has taken fucking hours to undo, and all done with force "how to delete someone else's email from microsoft login"? delete your fucking cookies or team cache. "how to unlink a microsoft account from windows"? don't forget to input your pc password! dw about how we didn't ask for it when we just linked it to your local account, you need it now
oh and unlinking isn't removing, you gotta do that one too!there has been genuinely nothing else in the past decade that has made me more frustrated, more fucking seething with anger, than dealing with the fallout of needing to use someone else's microsoft account for an hour

… we also need your cookie and tracking preferences. Do you want us to store all possible data about you and share it with everyone? “Yes” or “Yes, but we pretend not to”
wrote last edited by [email protected]When there is a "legitimate interest" switch at each of the 262 partners which can only be toggled off manually, one by one, and it's all on by default.
So you click the question mark to see what exactly they mean by legitimate interest, and the info pop-up says "it's when our interest is legitimate".
This should be regulated more strictly.

That is pretty neat, stealing that idea for the login page of my hobby project

They didn't until EU laws, so you can thank them for that.

Do you want to save this account for future login?

I wish more people would use Gopher.
Create a cool alternative web that isn't filled with harmful degeneracy (looking at you, Tor. I2P ur cool though). I don't think JavaScript in its essence was toxic to the web, like how one snort of heroine isn't technically a killing thing. But it got addicted and all and dragged is down with its demise.

I get your frustration, but that's a fucking awful choice for a whole bunch of reasons, not only because of Microsoft's bullshit. You really buried the lede.
Don't share accounts people!
Have them forward you the meeting invite or reach out to the organizer to call you instead.
And if you fucking insist on logging into someone else's account again, use Private Browsing mode and the web client of Teams to keep it from touching the rest of the machine. It works fine for audio and video calls.
At any place with a half decent security policy you'd be looking at disciplinary action. At certain workplaces this would be an immediate firing.

I have Microsoft accounts for work, my admin credentials at work, my side gig, and my personal. You can not share passwords and still be incredibly frustrated at Microsoft's stupid refusal to put a "Switch User" link on the login form which autopopulates based on cookies. Otherwise I gotta go find a Microsoft page, log in, log OUT, and then go try my original log in again. This is painful if you're constantly switching accounts, as Zero Trust requires admins to do.

Yeah it's weird when websites show the sign up button, but hide the log in button inside some little shit of a menu.
Like... are people coming back to your website after signing up...? I would have thought that repeat log ins would be the more common use case by far.
