I need to load a second page to enter my password in some sites. Why is this? I even have a site I use that has the username, password and 2FA entries on separate pages that each need to be loaded one after the other.
My uneducated guess is that it makes it harder for bots, but I can’t imagine it being that much of an impedance 🤷
Cheers!
Sometimes it’s just UI/UX, sometimes it’s to deter specific patterns they’ve seen from bots, users, or brute-force. It’s really just subjective. One isn’t necessarily better than the others though it does mess with automated input of credentials a lot of times.

Nah, that’s ineffective. A simple Captcha and lockout would do more to deter brute forcing than having two different forms.
