Is this just me? My account keeps logging out automatically even though i already set it to remember me.
This start happening since today. Maybe because i keep changing between mobile data and wi-fi?

@Kurotsubaki No you are not the only one it happens to me too, already tried clearing cookies, resetting my phone and changing my password.

Changing between mobile data and Wi-Fi may cause this but if you log on from both, you shouldn't be getting logged out. Thoughts, @rdn ?

Yes, this is because the session can only be recognized, if the browser-id and the ip match. so each time you get a new ip, it needs a new session too.

Generally this is to prevent session-highjacking and add more security. But considering how many mobile users this might affect, i'm thinking of adding a "low-security" mode which does take changing ip addresses into account one way or the other.

Alright, I prepared a fix that takes changing IPs into account. It should be live soon.

Heyo, wanna ask, I'm still getting logged out after awhile when I'm afk-ing whilst reading some manga. Is this a bug?

I was getting logged out each hour until I remembered uMatrix hourly spoofs my browser's user-agent. I assumed the issue was on the site's end because it didn't happen before the site update.

The sessions log from my account settings supports this.
