Having to sign in to LT multiple times a day

It seems that every time I visit a LT page (or reload) that I am being asked to sign in. Since this also includes the cookbook CAPTCHA, it takes time and is growing annoying. Normally I would only have to log in once every several months.

But I generally don't see the behavior on my iPad Mini 5 with iOS 15.6.1. It seems to have a more reasonable interval of sign-ins though probably more frequent than before.

The computer where I am experiencing this chronic problem is a MacBook Pro (2019) (16 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD) running MacOS 13.2.1 (Ventura). The browser is Chrome 112.0.5615.49 (Official Build) (x86_64). I do use ExpressVPN and expect that my IP changes but probably no more frequently than a DSL or mobile client's would.

On Chrome I have not reset recently. There are cookies and site data for about 1,400 sites. I don't think there is any reason to reject the LT cookies on this browser but am not sure how to check that.

Since I don't see another report on this issue, I recognize that it may just be me. But it is something I would like to resolve nevertheless.

(This is one of those places where it would be nice to get notifications when there is a reply but I'll check back when I can).

have you turned off cookies?

>2 al.vick:, no. It does not appear so. My Chrome browser is set to:

Block third-party cookies in Incognito

I am not using LT in Incognito tabs.

But I agree that it is behaving as if the cookies are being rejected.

>3 Keeline: I have had an issue on my Chromebook where I can not log onto the USPS site Informed Delivery because the cookie or setting file is corrupted. I then have to clear the cookies before it will work correctly again. I wonder if this could be a similar issue?

>1 Keeline: Just noting that I've seen this and have asked the developers what they think (I'm curious if it's the VPN causing issues), but haven't gotten a response yet.

For what it is worth, I just had to sign in twice in the past 10 minutes. Something is not quite right for me.

I have cleared the LT cookies (with and without www) and logged in again to see if this makes a difference.

It did not help. I had to log in a 4th time today. All I did was reload the Talk page to see any new results.

Perhaps try another browser on the same device, it will at least help establish if it's some browser setting or something more general
