Nothing enrages me more than a password character limit. Thank you for making sure my password is LESS secure with your idiotic requirements based on security recommendations that are at least a decade old.

How about… an undisclosed character limit? We’ll just keep telling you your password is invalid until you figure out the max length.

Let the users enter as many characters as they want and silently crop the password to a few characters.
