The lemmy.world instance was just updated to version 0.18.2. The login issues that were being reported (for example, here) are now resolved.
For release notes: https://lemmy.world/post/1339018
Edit for those who still have issues logging in:
- When using a browser: clear cookies and cache
- When using an app: remove your lemmy.world account and add it again.
Anyone using Liftoff - if you can’t log in, or keep getting logged out, remove and re-add your account:
Settings from top right
Accounts
Long press the account
Click Remove
Then add the account again
Fwiw, I skipped to the last step and it worked. Didn’t have to remove the account, re-adding the existing account still worked
That’s a top tip! I’ll update our instructions to our users. Thanks!
I’ve found for both Liftoff and Jeroba that going to the android apps page on my phone and clearing the cache for both of them cleared up some persistent login/logout issues that removing/adding my account didn’t.
Works on one phone, not on the second one. So weird.
