Kbin keeps logging me out, while I'm actively using the site - I go to make a comment or something and it doesn't work; logging back in automatically redirects me to the front page. (kbin.social)

This is really annoying. Does anyone else have this problem?

I have a solid repro:

  1. Sit on a page for a long period of time without other activity (for example, minimized web browser for 30-45 minutes)

  2. Interact with a post by hitting the upvote or downvote button

I'd imagine some session token is expiring and when you send the request for the upvote/downvote it rejects the call due to an expired token. Then the page refreshes and logs you out. Pressing the home page again will auto-log you back in.
