    after the main website update, it is now mandatory to relog in every time you want to vote. every time we log in we must also complete a captcha.
    This change makes voting unnecessarily more annoying.
    is it possible to let us at least remain logged in for a longer period of time (idk, a week or two?) that way we wont need to deal with double captcha every voting session

    I observed that I remained logged in on some occasions while others require me to log back in, I could only imagine this was implemented to somewhat deter vote abusers as well.

    This has now been implemented.
    If you are already logged in, you need to re-log and check the "remember me" checkbox in the login page.

    ever since this change, i still needed to relog like about 3 times. instead of remembering for a week, it barely remembers you for a few days :-/

    Haven't had to relog since the remember for 1 week has been implemented so far.

    Could it be that you cleared your browser‘s local storage?

    I don't think i did, i logged in 2 days ago, and this morning i was asked to log in again. i had the checkmark on when signing in, and didn't do stuff like browsing history clearing. this happened on an android phone in chrome

    I figured out the issue:
    the new feature does in fact keep me logged in, but if i leave the vote tab on for more than a day, and open that page, it will both have me logged in, and also request a log in. fixed by simply reentering the vote page
