We often spend our lives accepting the status quo. There are times however, when it helps to ask what can be done differently. For example, whenever we are asked to create a new password, we are asked to type the password into two fields.
When joining the snapcraft forum however, I noticed that they asked for entering the password only once.

Then it struck me...it makes perfect sense! Even if there's a typo in my password, this is a platform that allows sending an email to reset the password.
If it was a desktop application or an OS login, it'd make sense to request entering the password twice. Web apps like these can do just fine with a single password field.
Good to see the Snap team being thoughtful and unafraid of creating a new path instead of following convention.
