More dark patterns: when I tried to delete my account, they claimed my password was incorrect. After trying and failing to delete my account for over a week, a tiny comment I saw on a YouTube video turned out to be gold: "if your password has upper and lower case characters, you must enter them all in lower-case or you will be told your password is incorrect."

That were correct.

(Account now deleted.)

That means that they either store the password in plain text, or store an extra hash of the lowercase with the only purpose to mislead and trick people.

People who work there are con artists.

Given their attitude to their users, probably plain text.
