I like to subvert those sites by just adding A1! to the end of every otherwise totally lower-case password.

There is a special place in hell for anyone who creates a maximum password length limit, however. That prevents passphrases and gains nothing. If you're working with some weird legacy system that can't handle long password (worst way: just truncating them and matching the first 8 characters), then add Argon2 or heck even SHA where you otherwise add the password length check.
