wtf is happening? (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Rockfury@lemmy.world to c/fediverse@lemmy.world

Why am I signed out every time I open this? Why can I hardly post anything anywhere? It's like a dice roll.

Betta believe it

[-] dandroid@dandroid.app 3 points 1 year ago

I mean, we literally are. They have been very clear about that.

[-] aggelalex@lemmy.world 40 points 1 year ago

Every time they upgrade their servers you gotta re-login.

[-] OldFartPhil@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago

Login issue reportedly fixed with 0.18.2 update: Lemmy.world updated to 0.18.2

[-] Rockfury@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Good to know! Looks like the login/out issue stopped.

[-] Madbrad200@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

lemmy.world is bugged right now. What I did is backed up my account subscriptions/settings and imported it over to sh.itjust.works. You may need to try a few times (it'll tell you when it's successful).

[-] Jcb2016@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Lemmy.world when I tried to post kept saying not logged in. Created an account on sh.it just.works

e: This instance hardly has anything

[-] Madbrad200@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

You can access all your lemmy.world communities from sh.itjust.works, it doesn't really matter if it has much locally.

Only issue is it's hot feed seems bugged

[-] samokosik@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 year ago

I have also experienced some bugs. So now I have more accounts

[-] Rockfury@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you for the tip on backing up.

[-] fubo@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Server-side authentication bug; maybe fallout from the recent attack? I'd expect instability for the next day or so as auth & related problems shake out.

[-] Rockfury@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Attack? I am outta the loop. What happened?

[-] fubo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

https://lemmy.world/post/1290412

Summary: Attacker found a way to inject JavaScript into the sidebar, letting them steal auth tokens ("JWTs"), including from an admin account. They then used the stolen admin access to vandalize the site. At one point, the attacker used the stolen admin account to falsely announce that the attack had been remediated. Later that day, the attack actually was remediated by the site owner (Ruud) and the vulnerability was patched in the Lemmy code.

Appreciate the info.

Different instances have different levels of stability

Blahaj has been pretty stable for me except during the recent attack

Beehaw has been kinda meh on stability

Lemmy.ml has been pretty stable when I've used it

Jerboa (the app I use to browse) has been hit or miss at times, but has been really stable since instances moved to 0.18.

[-] Silverseren@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Kbin has had no issues for me and hasn't been attacked yet (or if it has been, dev Ernest apparently fought them off, probably barehanded too).

@Silverseren With nothing but spare keycaps and toothpaste, no doubt

[-] starlinguk@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Kbin gives me an error whenever I updoot a post, but that's about it.

[-] Amir@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Lemmy.ml was overloaded half of the evenings before lemmy.world found the causes of performance issues (now solved in 0.18.1)

[-] kirby@waifuism.life 5 points 1 year ago

@Rockfury@lemmy.world ITS A

LEMMY MOMENT

[-] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

I'm just going to use accounts other than my one on lemmy.world for a bit while they sort out whatever's going on.

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Getting logged out randomly and having to submit comments multiple times for them to post sure is fun. /s

[-] Darkmeatduck@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Getting the same thing. Found out I was unsubbed from the sub I was following.

[-] aleph@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago
[-] gusVLZ@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Clean app data and cache, login again, fixed for me at least

[-] ultranaut@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That seemed like it worked for me but then it happened again eventually.

[-] ubik@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Testing on Memmy. Hope this works.

[-] Pandantic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Memmy signed me out (covertly - only way I could tell is my subscription view showed communities wasn’t subscribed to). Re-entering my credentials fixed it. Let’s see if this posts first time.

[-] Gutotito@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Getting federation working as advertised is a pain in the ass. I ran a solo instance back when Mastodon was new, and there was no end to the nonsense it generated. That's why I'm now subscribed to the instance @ernest is running. :)

[-] Pandantic@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Ernest is running lemmy instance or you’re talking about kbin?

[-] Gutotito@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, kbin here.

[-] RxBrad@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Just setup my own Masto server for myself. My initial thought was, "Crap, I can't follow anything by hashtag anymore," since I'm the only user and nothing would get pulled in by federation.

Then I learned about using https://relay.fedi.buzz to create a whole bunch of relays based on hashtags. And now it's pretty much perfect for how I use it.

My federation feed is just stuff I like, and my server doesn't get filled with random crap from federating with hundreds of full-ass servers like typical relays give you.

[-] Xariphon@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I logged out and back in again and that seems to have helped. Not sure if it mattered at all or if the timing was coincidental.

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Logging out and back in only really fixes the "youre logged out" (not entirely though) issue. Posts still have to be posted multiple times for it to actually happen most of the time from my experience.

[-] fury@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Reminds me of when I had to change my site's login cookies from "session" cookies to "persistent" cookies because mobile browsers aggressively clear the session. I don't know if that's what was going on in this case.

[-] lemminer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I access lemmy through liftoff. No such issue.

[-] Laticauda@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I also use liftoff and I've definitely been having that issue on my lemmy.world account.

[-] lemminer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I just got logged out of my session :D

[-] Sir_Kevin@discuss.online -2 points 1 year ago

There are thousands of instances. I don't understand why everyone is piling on to lemmy.world
