Since a few weeks ago, Lemmy.world will always log me out when I leave it, and I cannot find a “stay logged-in” tick-box anywhere in the settings. Is this a bug or a feature or perhaps a “me-problem”.
Happens with Firefox and Vivaldi on Linux, if that matters. Emptying cache/cookies did not help. Mobile app is fine.
Thanks for any hint!
I had this exact same problem using Firefox containers, if you try and open Lemmy.world in a container it logs you out every time you close the page or browser, I just started opening it without assigning it to a container and it seems to work just fine.
Hello,
you shouldnt be logged out if you leave the page.
Here are some ideas:
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.
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?
Using Firefox 127.0 on Linux Mint MATE 20.3
I haven’t even used this laptop in over a month. No login issues here, my old login token is still just as valid as when I set it aside.

Can confirm that is happening to me too, using Firefox v130 on Linux, the weird thing is I have another machine that was logged in since a few months back that is still logged in and does not have this issue
