Show HN: A compilation of websites with dumb password rules

Nice, but displaying this as a gallery seems to make it harder to quickly parse all of these. The rules are all just images some hard to read at that scale, and some cut off. If you click on one, you can't page to the next, you have to go back to the gallery and click on the next.

Seems like it would be nice to have the actual set of rules next to each example, and to be able to page through the examples.

I also find having to page through the home page a little odd.

I bounced pretty quick, because as amusing as it was, seeing a site and then a cut-off sentence about why it was there was not the best presentation.

The splash page would make more sense if it had some brief description of why sites end up there--and maybe some guidance of making decent password rules.

Thanks for the feedback, the gallery seems to be not well loved, so will be re-evaluated.

Maybe two views? I sort of liked the gallery tbh.

Good feedback, thanks! Pagination through items would be a great addition and the gallery seems to be not loved, so will be re-evaluated.
