Issue logging out, resetting passed, and logging in

So I got an odd issue.

I can’t seem to logout. When I click logout on the web UI it acts like I just clicked a link. I’m still logged in, can post, and like I just refreshed the page.

I open up a new browser/private mode and tried to login. I see the Login button spin, but nothing happen after a few seconds. I get no feedback such as wrong password or login successful. Refreshing the page seems to indicate I am still a visitor.

Thinking I have wrong password I try to reset the password. I get an email to reset it and then same thing after entering passwords. No indication anything worked. Open another private browser to login and still same thing.

I feel like I am in this weird spot with my login. Thankfully I am always logged in so I should have access.

Anyone know what is going on?

There was a bug with cookies, but I believe I have fixed it. If you're still seeing the issue, try clearing all your cookies and logging in again - it should start working after that!

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I am scared that if I wipe out all my cookies I won’t be able to retain access on my account.

When I use another browser in private mode or another device I can’t login at all. Just tried the password reset with same issue.

I was having this issue just now, but clearing cookies solved it (I didn't actually clear all cookies, just anything conceivably fediverse-related; that was enough to fix it; could then successfully log out and back in)
