Not storing my account or keeping me logged in? (lemmy.ca)

The app on android was fine for a while, but the past few days it keeps logging me out and then my account is no longer saved. If I enter my account info it appear to have me logged in for a refresh or two, but then I can't get to my profile and then I show up as Anonymous again.

Should I remove and reinstall?

This is due to having your session invalidated after that exploit that hit lemmy.world decently hard.

Delete your user, and readd worked for me. Alternatively clearing the apps cache I've heard can work.

Remove and reinstall would also work, but is just a more roundabout way of the other two methods.

Technically, it does show a gap in Jerboa to me. It can't handle the unexpected scenario of server side invalidation of login sessions.

Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
