ERROR incorrect_login but only on my PC? (yiffit.net)

I got on my PC today and noticed that yiffit, my homepage, won't log me in and just keeps giving this red banner popup in the left corner that says "error incorrect_login."

I know it's not my login/password combo; I am able to use Jerboa and Firefox on my phone to log in and do stuff (that's how I am writing this post!) but on my computer it won't let me in! Cleared the history, cache, saved info, etc and it just keeps giving me this damn error even when I try to open the login page to make sure it's trying the right info.

The main page itself just gives me the standard "server issue" error that I assume is Lemmy's default error page when it can't reach the server. But again, I am only getting this problem on my PC; my other devices allow me to browse and post just fine, so I have no idea what the heck is going on here. Is it my end or the server?

Another dumb thing. If you're using a password manager, are the username and password correct/updated?

Are there any other popups that come at the same/similar time?

The only place I can find the error text "incorrect_login" is in lemmy-js-client-main. I'll have to do a bit more digging to find what all the causes are. At least one cause is bad username password combo.

Though, consistent errors on lots of pages makes me think some extension might be interfering with the javascript.
