Ditto, but it seems to be a problem with lemmy.world. I successfully logged into a different instance.

I have never been able to log in to Lemmy.world with any app. I think is may be the instance because I can log in anywhere else.
I had the same but it works with old.lemmy.com.
Same issue, but I run my own instance. The password is 1,000% correct, not sure what's wrong.
How long is ur password?
Obviously I'm not going to give you the exact character count of my password :p
Yea lol, I mean like is it under 32 characters?
Yeah, it's under 32 characters.
I'm trying to figure out how it's trying to log in, but log parsing in Lemmy is so hard when the server is shooting 2,000 lines per second. Other apps work fine with the same password.
Yeah same with my old password, worked fine with connect
Well, if you get signed in, it'd be awesome if you could come let me know what worked for you!
I managed to log in, it was the length of the password, I changed my password to a shorter one and it worked
Now that's definitely strange, but thanks!
I got that error when I tried to login to lemmy.world. Worked fine with lemm.ee.
.world is having issues at the moment.
Was able to login just fine. What instance are you trying to login to?
I believe lemmy.world is currently experiencing downtime.
I'm using sh.itjust.works so that's not it
As it turns out, the issue I was having earlier was due to CloudFlare blocking my login due to activity that looked like a bot. I cleared that rule and I'm all good now
Any other details? Did you find your instance in the list?
Yes, it's sh.itjust.works, I put in my username and password and it just says invalid login. I even checked my password with the web version of the instance and the password is right
You might have to add "https://" in the beginning, but I doubt that that's it. What version is shitjustworks running on? Could be possible that sync can't log into older versions. Either that or the instance is just too overloaded.
It's running 0.18.2 which is like 1 minor version update behind
Yeah well, that might be the issue :/
Is your password too long?
Wait that's a issue?
It was for someone earlier. They reduced their characters down to 32 and managed to log in fine.
Turns out that was the issue :/
Glad you got it sorted.
