Lemmy cookie expiring and forgetting, well, everything?

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I didn't find mention of it. I use old.lemmy.world as my interface and I've noticed that roughly every month I'm:

  1. Forcibly logged out and have to do the re-auth dance for no apparent reason.
  2. Everything I've set in Settings is forgotten: Default Listing reverts to All, Default Post Sort reverts to Hot, and so on.

My browser is set to retain cookies and such, so it's not PEBKAC/PICNIC. Why is Lemmy doing a nuke-from-low-orbit every month (roughly; haven't measured it) despite me using it as recently as the day before? Isn't this bonkers practice?


Edit: I've just seen https://mastodon.world/@LemmyWorld/112706805419064266 which may explain it. Either way, the questions stand.
