    I never have to re-sign into, well, anything as long as I:

    • Don’t reformat/reinitialize the device I save the login on
    • Don’t log in from another device on services that only allow 1 concurrent login (like Steam)
    • Don’t clear my cookies

    The last item is gonna hurt a lot of the extreme privacy people. I know y’all never save cookies.

      I have to use this shit for work. If you don’t set your cookies to auto delete it is basically impossible to go through the Microsoft SSO after around a week. Just use a decent password manager if you can and press enter 4 or five times.

        It would be that easy, if not for “please approve login on your microsoft authenticator app” step which means i also have to pull out my phone, unlock it, find the stupid app and then type in the code

          Think god I don’t have to deal with that. It’s not even surprising that it can be even shittier though.

            You use two or more computers at the same time?

            This is directly from Steam’s support page on the topic:

            Steam does not support multiple players using one Steam account simultaneously - games associated with a Steam account are licensed for the sole use of the account holder.

            If multiple users attempt to log in and play simultaneously with one Steam account, the user who logged in first will eventually receive an “Invalid Steam UserID Ticket” error message and be forced to log back in to continue playing (if the first user logs back in, the second user will receive this error message).

            It’s literally worked that way since 2003.

              Oh at the same time, nevermind, no I don’t do that. I was thinking about having a device logged, not necessarily turned on

      Well, you’re lucky then. I don’t do any of those things on my work computer, and that checkbox might as well not exist.
