Spent tonight refactoring the @pixelfed login UI

I wasted more time than I'd like to admit trying to work around chrome auto-fill to focus the input (and style it) only to discover that it's not possible because its a security risk 😑

Anyways, this is my 3rd login refactor and it will be shipping despite the slight UX "bug" of Chrome requiring user input or interaction for auto-fill

And don't worry, this will also work with password managers 😅 #pixelfed

Login v2 vs v3 design

The v2 design was more bold and distracting, I decided to start from scratch using a similar layout to the existing design for v3 to keep the focus on the intent/action

v3 uses animations and loading indicators when applicable and is overall a better UX IMO

Password resets and 2FA is also much better in v3
