I have relatively long Passwords, because why not, and had problems with pages restricting the number of characters you can enter in the login window, but not the registration window. Or restricting password length and cutting your password off, but not telling you about it, so you gotta figure out that they set the first 30 characters of the saved password as your password.
Always fun to deal with. I could make it a lot easier for me by just using shorter passwords, but I think deep down I’m a masochist.
The worst version of this I’ve ever seen is a site that enforced a password policy on the “current password” field on the “change password” interface. I had an existing password that violated their policy (either because they changed the policy or a technician created a “temporary” password for me, I forget), and I could not change it to a proper password because my current password would get rejected.
I have several password manager plugins installed on my browser, along with the built-in password managers in the browser and the OS itself, because I like seeing them all fight over the password field.
Bitwarden inserts them automatically, and if I ever have to do it manually for some reason, it just doubles the fun. Hasn’t happened to me yet, though.
There is also use a password manager and reset the password everytime because the site blocks them and locks it out.

Typos is why I don’t make mine longer or more complicated.
That strongly depends on whether you are allowed to copy and paste:-)
If I can’t paste my password I will almost always choose not to use the site, if I have the option. I can’t understand why they would prevent that.

A good password wallet clears the clipboard after a timer expires.
