I see this more and more lately: go to log in to some site, and they only show the username field. Enter username, click Submit, then a password field appears. Enter password, click Submit again, and then we’re logged in.
This makes using a password manager super annoying, because I have to trigger the autofill twice.
Is there some security-related reason more sites are doing this? Is it an anti-bot thing? I’m just really curious, because it seems so pointless on its face, but it seems to be spreading.
It’s done this way for SSO. Sometimes instead of providing the password you will be redirected to your company’s SSO based on the email address domain.
