Hello,
you shouldnt be logged out if you leave the page.
Here are some ideas:
Thanks a lot!
It happens on Firefox (130), Vivaldi and a pretty virgin Chromium. Firefox is a little worse, in that if I press F5 to just reload a page, I am logged out again, no matter the security setting. This does not happen on the other browsers. I don’t really know what to look for in the console; it shows errors in fonts, things like ‘line-height’ and such, nothing that would give me a hint. However, I am not a web-developer and could easily overlook something.
Could you check if you have your Privacy Settings set to LOWER than strict. Did you try on a alternative ui like Alexandrite?
Thanks bunches for putting up with me. 👍
I have tried all privacy settings, no change. Where can I change the ui, please; it’s not in my account settings?
And Lemmy is the only site that does this. I do not have this issue with any other site, including other Fediverse sites like Mastodon or Pixelfed.

Why would Lenny not work in strict security mode when every other site works just fine? It’s just a cookie, right? How is lemmy.world special?

Funny enough this was the issue for some people. Strict mode could have effects on cookies. But as he already tested it, it was not the issue.

Does lemmy.world use third party cookies for authentication or something? Otherwise, I don’t see how strict mode should interfere.

No, but better have him check it out of possible issues. But this is in general a lemmyUI bug.
