• It's a single bug. Do not report multiple bugs in one issue.
• It's a frontend issue, not a backend issue; Otherwise please create an issue on the backend repo instead.

Summary

In Lemmy 0.19.0-beta.8 when you sign in for the first time, it works fine. But as soon as you logout and try to signin for a second time, it displays the message:

auth_cookie_insecure

This error does not go away until you clear your cache/cookies.

As a workaround I always need to use an incognito tab now.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Sign in
2. Sign out
3. Try to sign in
4. auth_cookie_insecure error

Technical Details

Samsung Internet browser on Android. But also with Edge on Win11.

Happened to me on 0.19.0-rc.4.

I never saw it happen anymore after switching to rc4 from rc3. So I suspect @fantismo 's problem may have some other cause? Like the javascript from rc3 still in the browser cache for example.
