Can't log in from mobile browsers (iOS) (self.lemmyworld)

I have tried to login yesterday and today from different mobile browsers (Safari, Opera, Firefox, Brave) and I never get passed the spinning wheel of loading. On my laptop I have no problems with it. What could be the problem and how can I fix it?

EDIT: Problem solved!

There is a UI bug where if you put in the wrong password it just spins forever (no error returned to the user)..

Please try to reset your password. That solves login issues for me most of the time.

Steps to do that:

Put the email address you signed up with into the login field and click Forgot Password.
check your email
click the reset password link
set your new password back to what it was supposed to be
try to log in

If all that fails, try again in a different browser.

Again, there are issues on the lemmy-ui GitHub page for password and wonky login behavior.

I am using the correct password, though, so it should let me log-in like it does on a non-mobile browser. I just now tried to login via Safari on my laptop and there I got in with the same password.

My problem was that I had my username saved with a space at the end in password manager

Mate, you are my personal hero of the day. And I feel pretty stupid. This was the issue, I can now login, thanks!
