Overall, LJ's been behaving reasonably well lately. No massive downtimes, the comment-spam mischief seems to be better managed, and I've picked up some new and interesting friends to read recently.
Oh, but as Columbo always said, there's just one thing.
I cannot seem to stay logged in to save my life. On my main computer, it's less of a problem; until recently, it seemed that LJ would toss its cookie about once a day, requiring a re-login (and, until I presume some Paid member complained about it, flashing an ad on the re-login screen) and then forcing you to their infamous "go have fun" page. The past few days, I've been doing that drill more like once every hour. It's a two-click solution every time, but those clicks add up over the course of a week and it's distracting as hell.
Worse than that, though, is that I cannot log into LJ through Safari on my phone at all. It's getting to be a major issue, on days like yesterday when I was away for most of the day and Eleanor, home posting, was putting up all kinds of details. I get the login page, it gives the "go have fun" page, but then instantly forgets everything so I can't see anything Eleanor (or anyone else) is posting friends-only. It might go back to when I got the new phone, but it restored everything else from the previous backup, and my login credentials are there- I can see them, and they work, at least long enough to succeed at login- but then they just seem to die on me.
I do have the LJ app on the phone, but it's wonky, too- when it does display entries, it messes up text coding, so that a single italics or strike code will carry over to the entire remainder of the entry, and I couldn't see any of Eleanor's recent entries through it, either.
The only place I don't seem to have problems is on the tablet. Godot II remembers its cookies (or whatever Android calls them) and the Android app seems to post and display just fine. But it's useless without wireless, and that's becoming harder to find as hot spots are increasingly securing up.
Nothing about this on lj_news or maintenance. Can anyone write a nice bug report for me in Russian?
