Came here hoping someone would explain how to use dev tools to remove that block or if there an addon for that, really hate this kind of restriction

if you don't want to or can't use extensions, just right click > inspect on the password field, then right click the element highlighted in the HTML and click "use in console" or "store in global variable" depending on browser

it'll put something like

temp0 into the console

just change that line to

temp0.value = "yourpassword"
```  and press enter

it sounds verbose to explain but it's just a couple of clicks and one command, if you're using a password manager it's still a lot easier than typing out a random string and it should work with most text boxes and inputs, might not work if the page is doing something fancy.

On macOS:

Love that Keyboard Maestro has an “Insert Text By Typing” feature/macro where text streams from your cursor :)

If all the other things fail, you can still use an auto-typer.

In about:config, set dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled to false.

https://webextension.org/listing/allow-right-click.html (downloads at the top)

You go to the offending page, click on the extension icon and it should remove the restrictions (if it doesnt work, you can try changing some of its settings)

Firefox often let's you bypass this shit with holding shift + right click or select the text you want to paste and drag and drop it into the field.

Man, that extension fucked with my Vivaldi. I couldnt send msgs on Twitch, couldnt delete cells on GoogleSheets and spent like an hour trying to figure out what caused it. Not worth the trouble tbh

Also on vivaldi, I now have three extensions that destroy half the pages on the web (and save the other half). With a little bit of whitelisting or just temporarily enabling, they work fine.
