Getting logged out after a week (lemmy.ca)

Is anyone else getting logged out of their accounts after about a week when logged in on a desktop web browser? (I'm using Firefox) I don't have this issue on mobile with Voyager.

Is there a way of staying logged in indefinitely?

If this is a setting, the inconvenience of needing to re-login gives users an incentive to weaken their security because users will try to make logging in less of a hassle (like disabling 2FA).

Ok, good to know, thanks!

It doesn’t seem likely to be a browser addon because if it were, I’d expect it to have the same effect on other sites and I don’t get logged out after 1 week on any other accounts.

I’ll see if the same thing happens when I log in on a different Firefox profiles and browsers.
