Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Do You Constantly Need to Login?

[Jonah Graham <jonah@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is more than just once in a while. I just hit the worst case where from when I started editing a gerrit reply to submitting it I was logged out :-( This is not the first time recently I have had this happen. Before that I had to login to gerrit again. 

I perceive it has gotten worse recently (perhaps even around the same time as Bug 552801 - but that may be coincidence). 

The place I have to log in most often is the wiki - but as it turns out some of the cookies for login on the wiki expire with the session, so that may explain that case (E.g. my_wikiUserName) - these cookies expire unpredictably (https://stackoverflow.com/a/36421888/2796832 and https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=128513) - perhaps others of these login cookies do the same thing?

Of the rest of my day to day sites (e.g. github, gmail, stackoverflow) I don't get asked to login again. 

PS eclipse.org is one of the few places I don't have 2FA on. I haven't asked for it up until now because I don't want the hassle of 2FA if I have to log on often.

HTH,

Jonah
