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.

      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.
