Proton Pass: Integrate with HTTP Basic Auth
Please integrate with HTTP Basic Auth. Many services, such as Transmission Remote, continue to rely on HTTP Basic Auth to implement authentication.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Authentication
This problem seems to happen in multiple browsers, including Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and others. Work with browser developers to fix how HTTP Basic Auth integrates with password managers.
As a workaround, the Proton Pass user has to manually copy the credentials via the clipboard, which is slow.
Concurrently, please work with Transmission developers to get a more modern, password manager friendly authentication system stood up, so that the service will no longer rely on HTTP Basic Auth. Proton has technical talent and some political weight to help pursue that feature in the Transmission Remote Web UI.
