I was surprised by the comment about contrast, knowing that the /r/blind community switched to Lemmy.

Just had a look at what https://rblind.com/ looks like. Hm, yeah, definitely different.

Confirm password fields reduces conversion rates. Google has such a chokehold on the market that I doubt they care about that and might be more interested in potentially reducing password reset traffic after miss typed password inputs. Though in fairness I think it's doubtful if there is even a benefit in that area from having confirm password fields. At least if you have a proper unmasking or "show password" option while registering.

If a website doesn't let me view a password, I use the inspect element to change the input type.
