I stay logged in on https://*.stackexchange.com for weeks except on https://data.stackexchange.com, where I have to log in again every few days. Why?

2Does this answer your question? SEDE logs me out more often than it used to do There are a number of duplicate linked to that question. – Ollie Jan 13 at 22:33

1@Ollie they're not asking exactly the same thing, that was suggesting a remedy, this is asking why it happens in the first place. – Pika the Master of the Whales Jan 13 at 22:50

3You're basically logged out once the app domain recycles. Can happen every 20 minutes of app inactivity (unlikely) , on high load, due to an crash or on a fixed schedule. If it happens multiple times per day, there is an issue. None of the cookies used on SEDE are restart re-silent. The login / auth system on SE proper is totally different and can deal with restarts/ webfarms etc. – rene Jan 13 at 23:04

1A closer duplicate may be (not obvious by the title): Extend or remove Data Explorer timeout. There are also Session at Data.SE expires very quickly and SE Data Explorer always logs me out. – P.Mort. - forgot Clay Shirky_q Jan 13 at 23:17

1Somewhat of an explanation, and a fix. – Rob Jan 14 at 3:42

1There's a relevant userscript on StackApps that will automatically login for you; I find it really handy for this problem. – zcoop98 Jan 14 at 18:12
