Sometimes I wonder if you've got stock in Apple for all the praise you give their various products!

Nah, their keyboards are shit. Which is something of an issue for a Deskthoritarian! I'm none too hot on what they did to the Magic Mouse either:

I prefer my wireless charging version. Now "obsolete". Like this Kishsaver beside it…

Anyway, I've no idea if this login issue is browser related. But when you have passwords like mine, credential sync is more than just a minor convenience:

I closed my DT window last night, and for the first time in a long time, it did not log me in this morning. Had to do it manually.

That was me, there was a cookie reset to see if that helps.

I am guessing it reset cookies for everyone ? I do get that from time to time i would say every 2 weeks or so i get logged out.

seemed okay yesterday, but got kicked out again today after I logged in from another PC (on the same network).

Shit. I really wonder what makes the difference between what a few are suffering as opposed to everybody else where there is no problem. I've been logged in from different clients, different networks, even different countries, no problem. I only suffered this problem a couple of years ago until a certain Firefox update, and never since. Maybe it's more of a problem if you use different instances from the same client on the same machine, so it can't differentiate.

Its strange , i can be fine for weeks and then it will log me out and keep doing it a few times that day , and then it will be fine again. I do use different clients behind the same IP at least some of the time.

During the past several days, I have been experiencing the login problem again. Has something changed on the DT server(s)?
