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.
Update seems to be running pretty smooth, but (and maybe I missed it) I think it would be super awesome if you put up a banner ahead of time letting people know you are doing a maintenance or update or something at X:00 pm EST or something.
To suddenly settle down and log in to post and support the platform only to be hit with a shit ton of confusing issues, then everyone posting about the same issues, then getting an update about what happened that caused the issues after the fact is less than ideal.
Again, maybe y'all did and I missed it, but a little banner with a heads up would be...
Good. These growing pains are a sign that weβre gathering steam. Best part is, with alt accounts on other fedded sites we no longer have to do something else during downtime.
Should it have logged folks out as a means to help resolve the login issues? I honestly couldn't tell because when I went away before this update, I was experiencing the issue and came back to it logged out, thinking it was a continuation of the issue till I saw this post...But then it left me asking this.
Tried to login to my Lemmy app, but strangely enough it wouldn't be able to load any posts when trying to filter on 'subscribed' subredd.... sublemmy's (Is that how you call it? Sorry, brand new to lemmy lol), but 'local' and 'all' works fine.
Don't know if it's an issue with the app having to update their API or something alike.
