I am currently getting signed out every minute from lemmy.world. This is not a client side cache issue. I tested making API calls from the command line (with curl) with no cache and the issue still occurs. One call I get the correct response, the next I get a 400 telling me im not signed in.

I'm primarily testing with the https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user/unread_count api endpoint. I'm not sure if this issue occurs with all endpoints.

Reproduction steps:

  1. Get a lemmy.world JWT token for your account using your desired method (eg. postman).
  2. curl https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user/unread_count?auth={JWT_TOKEN_HERE}
  3. Note the 400 error. If you do not get an error repeat step 2.

Edit

This issue only seems to affect lemmy.world so a temporary workaround is to use a different instance for the time being.

The issue is server sided so it will not matter what you use unfortunately. Technically a temp but terrible fix is to keep retrying on 400s (not signed in) until a 200 (success) is returned. This is terrible because you pretty much never want to retry for 400 errors because 400 errors are client side errors (except in this case).

Thx for elaborating. Not the answer one wants to hear, but at least I won't continue foolishly to restart browser and clear cache / cookies.
