Could still be a software issue. Someone said this already but it could be possible that Lemmy.world is using a load balancer and multiple servers. These two servers' authentication tokens may be out of sync. So if you hit server 1 and you are sign in to server 1, you're good. If you hit server 2, you're signed out all of a sudden. This can also explain why the issue started to happen abruptly today. It's possible the load on the server wasn't that bad yesterday so the load balancer didn't kick in. This is all speculation. Will have to wait for an official message to confirm anything.

Server side bug with lemmy.world and intermitent authentication. (lemmy.ml)

I am currently getting signed out every minute from lemmy.world. This is not a client side cache issue. I tested making API calls from the command line (with curl) with no cache and the issue still occurs. One call I get the correct response, the next I get a 400 telling me im not signed in.

I'm primarily testing with the https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user/unread_count api endpoint. I'm not sure if this issue occurs with all endpoints.

Reproduction steps:

  1. Get a lemmy.world JWT token for your account using your desired method (eg. postman).
  2. curl https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user/unread_count?auth={JWT_TOKEN_HERE}
  3. Note the 400 error. If you do not get an error repeat step 2.

Edit

This issue only seems to affect lemmy.world so a temporary workaround is to use a different instance for the time being.

What is the best way to mark a post as read from the API? in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml

What is the best way to mark a post as read from the API? (lemmy.ml)
 

Hello! I'm the developer of Summit, one of the Lemmy apps.

I want to be able to mark a post as read using an API call.

I understand that fetching the post itself using the account JWT will mark the post as read for that account, however this also fetches a lot of data.

Trying to be as server friendly as possible, what is the least resource intensive way to mark a post as read and nothing else?

Also if there is a better place to ask this, please let me know.
