You might wanna log out and readd your accounts, most instances changed the login cookie secret after the attack yesterday, so now the old cookies don’t work any more.
I feel like with these kind of things it’s worth saying things that might seem obvious to you or me. I know there’s still a lot of confusion around lemmy and we’re still getting new users.
Yeah, that’s why I usually try and explain things, not just offer solutions. I believe it’s important for the users to understand how things work under the hood. Not in detail, but the general gist of it, yes.
It’s like a secret code. You can define a new one whenever you want (the admins I mean), but that will invalidate any active session (users logged in), so you have to clear cache and log back in.
Ask the admins if they’re changing the secret every single day (that would be overkill IMO, but they might think this is a must till things get patched, IDK if lemmy.world is on 0.18.2, which implements the patch, or they still haven’t updated).
This was happening to me for awhile. Reinstalling jerboa fixed it. Are you using the store version or pulling straight from GitHub with obtanium? I was doing the latter.
