I have to run it through a browser because I'm on Linux and it's constantly logging me out Even when I say don't do it don't ask again just keep me logged in. Nope fuck you log out, and sometimes it gets stuck in a loop where I log in and it logs me out immediately over and over until I clear my cache and reset my browser it's insane
The most useless UI element ever invented:
It works on open source stuff I use, at least. Also there's no hope if you connect over multiple devices, as only one browser on one machine has the authentication cookie
I especially like this in MS Teams
It looks like it's working fine, then you try to join a meeting and randomly get one of:
It always works fine if you close your browser and re-open it between uses of teams.microsoft.com
Have you seen the one where you're actually in a meeting and it warns that you've been logged out but still lets you continue your meeting?
has been a long time since I used teams on my phone. It used to log me out constantly there too... but it kept sending notifications of all messages to the phone until I opened the actual app to be told I was logged out
I haven't, but wow am I unsurprised
That one happens for me, too. I like to imagine a non-techie trying to use that web version and every time it starts doing the login-logout loop, they have to contact tech support.
For me it happens about once a week. Surely, there's organizations where this keeps tech support busy all day...
That sounds like a use-case for a separate browser profile. That way when you reset everything you're not affecting every other site you visit.
