Lemmy: Alert Window: Not logged in

[Nutomic]

No idea what causes this, it seems to happen randomly after having the site open for a few hours or days without interacting.

After clicking okay, Lemmy still shows you as logged in. But voting or commenting will throw errors, and a reload will reveal that you are actually logged out.

Hrm.... a manual logout should only happen when we change the JWT token on the server and reload it... I don't have any expiration set on the JWT token currently.

I'll have to think about this one.

Is this still an issue?

[Nutomic]

I still saw it during the last week or so, still no clue why. Weird that no one else seems to have this problem.

This should be gone now, with the websocket-autoreconnecting, and the toasts.

FYI I'm still getting the same issue, just without the alert. So now it looks like I'm logged in, but I cant do any actions like voting, so I have to reload the page which shows that I'm not logged in anymore.

Hrm.... The only thing I can think of is that a browser update, or something is causing your cookies to clear out.

Not sure, I might have restarted the browser in between and that cleared the cookies? Let me try.

Edit: Nope, still logged in normally after a browser restart. Will try to remember to check my cookies next time this happens.

Just got this problem again. Dev tools show that the jwt cookie is not sent at all with new requests. But the website is still showing me as logged in (until I try to post or vote).

Still an issue? No idea what caused it.

I'm still getting this every few weeks or so, but it might be related to a browser plugin or something considering no one else complains about it.
