Lmao you're right. Removed the first part. It came to look like an ad because I posted my first thought, then came back with my second one and appended it.

As far as the password goes, to this day I have no idea how it happened. I don't want to admit I use the same password for everything, but ye know.. it just stopped working for Proton one day.
