Quote: | Where before, Gmail users would enter their username and password on the same page, the new login flow separates this process. Now, you’ll first enter your username, then be directed to a second page where you enter your password. Some complain that this change slows them down, while others point out that the update has broken their ability to log in using various password managers.
According to Google, the change was implemented to prepare for “future authentication systems that complement passwords.” The company is vague on the details as to what those may be, but may be referencing other methods to secure accounts like two-step/two-factor authentication, hardware dongles, or perhaps even some web-based variation of Android’s “Smart Lock” system. |

What are they thinking? Each and every stupid design decision (Youtube etc) keeps requiring more and more clicks.
Anyone can enter a random email and see the name that's been set on that account.
Like always Google is vague on why this was done. 
1 and 2 are still amazing.
