As the title suggests. I was having multiple issues with posts, upvotes, downvotes and comments not saving.
Deleting the app and reinstalling has refreshed the whole thing and it now works better than ever.
Posting here in case anyone else had similar issues.
This is because of the hack last night. Many of the big instances logged people out, but the apps weren’t coded to handle this use case.
If you only have one account in Memmy, the only way to log out is to reinstall. If you have more than one account, you can swipe to delete an account.
I also just deleted and reinstalled app, but apparently there is a much simpler way:
“Please go to “Manage Accounts” and then tap your Lemmy.world account. Hit “Edit Account”, enter your password, then hit save.”
I found that editing the password and re-entering it then saving was enough. I guess it’s just having to refresh the Auth token?
Are you all noticing if you leave a comment on a post, it has you right off the bat at 2 upvotes?
Yep, me too
Edit: except not this one, apparently
Hmm maybe it’s an instance thing like it happens when posting to certain instances and not others.
I’ve had this bug every since I’ve started using Memmy. I really hope they fix it eventually. It happens to me on most posts and comments.
Known issue
Thanks, fixed my inability to vote.
Just another confirmation that this works
Yep, this fixed a lot of issues, and I got to see the new “choose an instance” page what was added a few updates ago, looks great :)
I had to re-download because I couldn’t log out and log back in. Lots of rough edges on the app.
You don’t need to delete the app, but you do need to re-log in to be able to vote or comment (presumably because of the hack yesterday).
Go to accounts tab, and delete your account (from the list of logged in accounts) and then log back in. You may need to “add it” a second time before you can delete it.
I fixed it by going into my account, hitting edit, and clicking the save button. I think there’s a bug with the expiring session not being handled. And clicking save seems to log you back in.
That fix doesn’t seem to stick. You start seeing errors again after an hour or so.
Everything’s been working fine for me so far. Didn’t have to delete anything.
You somehow dodged a bullet, or recently reauthenticated. A great many people had their apps stuck in a wonky state because many instances logged everyone out after last night’s hack.
