Getting logged out after a week (self.main)

Is anyone else getting logged out of their accounts after about a week when logged in on a desktop web browser? (I'm using Firefox) I don't have this issue on mobile with Voyager.

Is there a way of staying logged in indefinitely?

If this is a setting, the inconvenience of needing to re-login gives users an incentive to weaken their security because users will try to make logging in less of a hassle (like disabling 2FA).

Try wiping all your cookies maybe.

Sounds like you're loosing your session cookie, you can poke at it in developer console to confirm its there.

If your session token hasn't changed and is still there but you're logged out, may be a lemmy bug. I haven't seen any other reports like this though.
