this has never happened to me in 5+ years of using reddit
- oblio 5y agoMaybe they don't do that, but for sure they log me out almost every day from Firefox/Android and I'm willing to bet dollars to peanuts they don't do that on the app. I even have freaking 2FA but they still don't remember the device and ask me every time for the code.
- diogenesjunior 5y agoi think that happens because of cookies, if they're cleared you get logged out. do you have settings on firefox that do that? i don't use it so can't tell you.
- oblio 5y agoNope.
- diogenesjunior 5y agodoesn't happen to me on chrome
- oblio 5y agoTry it on Firefox. Plenty of things don't happen on Chrome because that's all devs test. That and Safari iOS. Which does make things less of an evil intent and more of a "if our laziness pushes our users to where we make money, that's an unfortunate side effect".
- datavirtue 5y agoLost a ten year old account because I didn't give them my email address fast enough. New policy. Account gone forever.
- LanternLight83 5y agoThis absolutely happens on Reddit's mobile site; a little popup-overlay/link reading "Continue on the app!" blocks the content you're reading like you've run out of free Quora questions, can't be closed, and persists on reload.
