The title says it all. Not even sure if it's going to keep me logged in long enough to submit this post.

Brought this same thing up in a post months ago and got quite a bit of downvotes and no help, so I never attempted to bring it up anymore lol. Maybe you'll have better luck. Saving this thread now... Thank you

The workaround I've been using is to just refresh the page. That tends to work... Sometimes... ๐Ÿซ

I checked your post history, are you talking about this post from a year ago? https://programming.dev/post/749664 (that one has only a couple downvotes which usually is standard as most posts get a couple downvotes though)

Its the kind of thing thats very difficult to solve since not everyone gets it and seems like it pops up randomly (havent been able to clearly reproduce it yet)

Were you also on mobile firefox using the site? Or was the firefox you were using on pc

One thing that I get with Firefox is that usually by opening a link in background when switching I appear as logged out until I try several ways of refreshing.

Some days ago I was logged out for real, but that it is not so common for me.

This is a consistent problem for me

That was the first post. I posted another one a few months back that I've since deleted, which is probably why you can't see it.

I'm usually on mobile Brave browser on my Android. I'm always appearing to be logged out. But, sometimes, when I refresh, I'm suddenly automatically logged in. Other times I have to just login again.

Yup I realize its hard to to reproduce. Do you have a latest Android with mobile Brave browser you can test with?

I use an old android version but I can update to try to replicate
