I tried logging in on browser and I had inspected the request. My password was sent in plaintext. Is this a infosec.pub issue or a Lemmy one?

    That doesn’t make any sense. If you hash it once on client and once on server, that means that your password, as far as the server knows, is the client-hashed password. Nothing has changed in terms of security. In fact, you could implement this yourself by hashing your password when creating it and when supplying it.
