Every time I try to upvote or boost something, there’s a solid 20% chance it’ll link to an Error page titled “Log in”. That percentage seems to increase the longer I’ve had my Kbin tab open without refreshing it.
Even more annoyingly, it regularily logs me off completely, forcing me to input my information again. It’s especially annoying on mobile since it won’t even remember my password for some reason, which was randomly generated, meaning it’s a pain to re-enter it every time.
The effect is that it’s making me interact with Kbin less and less, I end up just scrolling without upvoting or commenting or anything, and ultimately I also just use the site less overall.
I like it here otherwise, but this one bug is making Kbin a real chore to use, and I know a lot more people have been experiencing it for a while now.
This is anecdotal, but I don’t experience these log outs on fedia (I have to relog like once every few days but that doesn’t bother me, I assumed it was cookie expiry but maybe it has to do with server restarts or something). So I can understand if it happens more often to kbin social users it might be some other way it’s set up like caching or something that others might not be running. Then again, without version info, it makes it a bit tough to debug so this might not be helpful, fedia could be running some random sha atm which might be the reason.
