My password manager still fills in the old password.
Accept the "update password" prompt after you set the new password. If you dismissed it, edit the saved entry in your password manager by hand.
Why does my new password need 8 characters?
Zeitlicht accepts only passwords with at least 8 characters, both when you set one and when you sign in.
