Every time I try to upvote or boost something, there’s a solid 20% chance it’ll link to an Error page titled “Log in”. That percentage seems to increase the longer I’ve had my Kbin tab open without refreshing it.
Even more annoyingly, it regularily logs me off completely, forcing me to input my information again. It’s especially annoying on mobile since it won’t even remember my password for some reason, which was randomly generated, meaning it’s a pain to re-enter it every time.
The effect is that it’s making me interact with Kbin less and less, I end up just scrolling without upvoting or commenting or anything, and ultimately I also just use the site less overall.
I like it here otherwise, but this one bug is making Kbin a real chore to use, and I know a lot more people have been experiencing it for a while now.
Yeah I need to look into that, I just use Firefox’s on desktop, but I don’t have it on mobile; I’m assuming there’s a way to link them together. It just hadn’t really been an issue until now.
A good password manager does far more than Firefox’s built-in. Among the many things it does is sync across devices. Personally I like Bitwarden a lot, and there are several others out there that are good too.
Yes. Firefox has its own sync feature. It’s fairly robust.
It’s worth getting a good one, not that I’m not a fan of Firefox, but the stand alone ones work really well these days. Everyone has their favorite, I’m currently using 1password because I get the family version for free from another service; but I’ve used most of them and they’re all pretty similar.
What service gives you 1password for free?
I have a router based service that blocks ads and has a bunch of security features. Part of the service, is a subscription to 1password and a vpn service. I happily use 1password and I buy my own vpn. They just switched vpn providers so I need to look them up, but I will still keep my current vpn since it’s tied to email and a bunch of services.
