After 2 or 3 days, I have to login again. I’ve googled, but have not found any Lemmy setting that would allow me to remain logged in longer than this. I suspect people are going back to Reddit simply because they’re always logged in there - month after month. I suspect there is a setting the instance admin can change. I’m hoping that Lemmy.studio’s owner can answer this question… or anybody. Thanks.

    Check if cookies are being automatically cleared by your browser then either stop that or add your Lemmy instance URL to your list of exceptions from it.

      I indeed do have a Firefox plugin called “Cookie AutoDelete”. I’ve whitelisted lemmy.studio in it. Thanks for the suggestion.

            Sorry about that! I checked and the cookies are hardcoded to last 7 days, so it’s weird that you’re getting logged out more often than that.

              Nah; I’m not saying I’m logged out within a week. I seem to stay logged in about that long. Because of your reply, I now understand the cause of this behavior; so, thanks for shining light on the issue. I prefer longer logins, but I’m not an admin here; so, I realize I have to do as Romans do in Rome.
