This happened just once or repeatable?
So far, just once or twice. That was after seeing that XF didn't respond when I moused over a member name. It would look as if I didn't mouse over it.

Had you been logged in for a long time? If so, that's the reason. Cookies expire after a while. They don't last forever. And when they expire, so does your login session.
I suspected maintenance being done causing that, or Firefox decided that the cookies were bogus. :mad: :banghead:

I don't remember if they expire every month or not. I sometimes wonder if Firefox bans the cookies after a Firefox update.

This is why I'm giving an educated guess. My install of FireFox has extensions that aggressively delete cookies and LTSOs when a tab is closed or the browser is exited. I login to TPU every single time I visit. This is the same for all website. It can be tedious but it's also the ultimate in security methodologies..

I've been logged in since forever, but I'm using 2FA, which prompts me for the key every 30 days, maybe that makes a difference

Same here...

Do you have any auto cookie cleaners?
Or, do you have your session privacy set to clean items when you close the browser... possibly, something along that line.

I randomly was logged out. Firefox 133.0.3.

Happened to me on my phone yesterday (iPhone, so WebKit engine regardless - Opera GX), but not on desktop. I have 2FA on too, 30 days verification and all. But I didn't need to login again, just refreshing the page fixed it

Happens to me all the time on Android. Refresh or hit the TPU logo to go to forums homepage works.

I imagine it has to do with memory management deleting cookies/unloading the webpage when Chrome is minimized.
