minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish14•4 months agoAny system I’ve ever used that expires passwords, forces you to set a new one upon logging in with the expired one. It doesn’t just lock you out and expect you to figure out on your own that you’ve gotta reset it via the ‘forgot your password’ link.
