Kbin Login

Is anyone else getting logged out when they close their browser tab?

I'm using Firefox on mobil. I like to keep my tabs clean in my mobile browser and every time I close my kbin tab, as of this morning, it makes me log back in.

This hasn't been an issue at all for the last month.

I also can't seem to access kbinMeta/newest without getting an error! So I hope this isn't a duplicate post

Today, the clearing of some sessions was intentional. But I have heard about it before. Are you sure that you logged in with the "Remember me" option checked?

When I'm using kbin on mobile, it's logged me out a lot randomly today. Desktop seems fine, just had to login once this morning.

HarkMahlberg@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

Yep, I've also been running into this problem, only in the last couple of hours.

I believe so, but I continue to get logged out so I'll double check the next time it happens 👍

I've been logged out again as well, even when selecting "Remember me".

NotAPenguin@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

It definitely keeps logging me out, even with remember me selected, firefox beta on windows 10.

Kerrigor@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Still happening a lot by the way

adonis@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

I could reproduce it by closing Firefox on mobile.
Then, after opening kbin.social it would show me as logged in, but once I navigate somewhere else, I get logged out

rodhlann@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

@ernest definitely still happening with checking remember me selected as of this morning

vraylle@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (4 replies)

Been happening to me also at least the last 2 days. I made sure I check "remember me". Firefox/Windows desktop.

@rodhlann @vraylle Do you log in using a username or an email?

sik0fewl@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

I'm having the same issues (Android PWA) and I'm logging in with my username.

vraylle@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Username

rodhlann@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y

@ernest I use my email

OonTaaKissa@kbin.social · 9 pts · 3y (3 replies)

I got logged out once but it seems to work fine after i logged back in

theinspectorst@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Yeah I had it twice today (never before) but it's been fine since then.

theinspectorst@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Called it too soon. Three times already today...

rodhlann@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y

I was having the issue consistently today until about 30 mins ago, so hopefully we're over the hump

Autofill in Chrome fills and advances in one move, so clicking remember doesn't work with autofill. Stop the page, click remember and then advance.

PSA: Don't use Chrome, or any browser, to save passwords. Get a password manager like bitwarden. It's very easy to see what your password is with the browser saving them.

edit: for the people downvoting, it literally takes 30-60 seconds to get your email password if you save your passwords in the browser. Once that's done none of your passwords are safe.

I also wouldn't use lastpass personally. They've had some very concerning breaches and I don't feel like they take security serious enough.

Keepass xc is the way to go

quortez@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

Chiming in to confirm I'm getting this as of two days ago (and still now)

jaye@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

Not even closing the tab here on Firefox mobile, and occasionally getting logged out.

HubertManne@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

Being logged out constantly on a browser I keep open to kbin to sit off to the side to glance as while I do other things. Its being logged out like at least every hour.

adonis@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

I got logged out again today despite having "remember me" checked

Eigengrau@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Me too , getting logged out but couldn't discern cause . Getting m/kbinmeta/newest issue too

rodhlann@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Not being able to see newest for this magazine is rough. I really like to keep up with the updates and issues people are reporting

SuperSpaceFan@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 3y

I've been seeing this since I installed the PWA about 3 weeks ago. I have cookies saved, but it still logs me out everytime I close the app.

daredevil@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Yup, this happens to me frequently on desktop and mobile. Using Firefox as well, and ticking "Remember me" hasn't helped either.

VulcanSphere@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Yup, I got logged out even after checked the remember me option.

Kill_joy@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y (3 replies)

Was hoping it wasn't just me.. has happened all morning, even mid scrolling.

rodhlann@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (2 replies)

It isn't happening for me anymore it seems. Perhaps a hiccup?

Kill_joy@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Just hopped back on and was logged out. So I dunno what the deal is

rodhlann@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y

Same 🤕

frasassi@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Constantly being logged out on the website, in the web app, and on Artemis. 😕

Openminded-skeptic@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Yes. I just had to log in again.

Before I was only having this issue on Lemmy.

indigojasper@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

This has happened to me from the beginning. After a certain amount of time it logs me out. It kept me logged in a bit longer on mobile (used Google Chrome to make it an "app") but eventually it logged me out there too, just when I thought I'd found a way around it.

Kerrigor@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Still getting logged out every few minutes, been happening all day

revengebreaker@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

6 days later and still getting logged out. Remember me is enabled

FredOnline@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y (2 replies)

That's happened to me today, both on my desktop and on my 'phone.

rodhlann@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

It's a bit frustrating! I've asked the kbin matrix chat about it too hopefully someone knows what's up

FredOnline@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

The next day, and still getting logged out.
