Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don't be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don't post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don't post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don't accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

Been having this issue for a while now, basically whenever I try to swap over to another account or log out of an existing account, it won't update. It'll refresh the page, but I'll still be on the same account. I've tried all the troubleshooting methods. it happens in safe mode, but doesn't happen in private window mode. If someone could help me figure out why this is happening that would be awesome!!

EDIT : If I change "set cookies" in the little padlock to "Allow for Session" then it works, but logs me out whenever I restart. updated setting

Some extensions may not be enabled in private window mode. You try disabling all your extensions?

[–] exoticbuilder@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago

it happens with extensions off as well
