Bugs and Suggestions

Unfortunately, this is in regular mode.

In private mode I'd expect all information to be gone one I close that browser session / window. I just tested it and when I open private mode, log in, open another tab (same private mode session, which does usually share all data for all other web sites), it behaves the same:

So for both private/regular view, even when another tab is still open with webz, the new tab will very shortly show the Tg window, all chats available it seems (possibly cached locally?), then immediately replace that with a login screen.

I've a few Plugins for Firefox. I just tested disabling all of them. Behaviour is the same.
Looking at the console, I see lots of "yellow" lines (warnings), though I get similar ones after I log in, so unsure if they hint at the cause.
Not sure I can attach more than one screenshot here. A selection:
Failed to retrieve or parse session from storage
QuotaExceededError: The current transaction exceeded its quota limitations.
Exception { name: "NS_ERROR_FILE_NO_DEVICE_SPACE", message: "", result: 2152857616, filename: "", lineNumber: 0, columnNumber: 0, data: null, stack: "" }
Additionally I once saw a failed connection to pluto.telegram.org - though that as well was when I was logged in, not during the "new tab, requires re-login"-phase.

Lastly I tried in Chrome. It seems to work there. Unfortunately Chrome is my "Test-Browser" which get's cleaned regularly, so for persistent login sessions I would be back at square one :)

Same problem here. When I open WebZ in a new tab, I can still see the messages, and then the app redirects to the login screen. Using Brave Browser here, latest version (based on Chromium 90). Legacy version (web.telegram.org) always worked well. Also not using it in a private window obviously.

Also, even when I am sometimes still logged in, it happened recently that WebZ 'forgets' my Dark Mode settings, just like your background image settings are lost.

There is a possible soution from another user:

> Ok, this warning led me to clearing site storage in Firefox for some other domains (the old web.telegram.org still used up 2 GB of data) and after a browser restart this problem went away so now I'm staying logged in.

Zefiro Anthragon, Eno Thiemann, please let me know if this helps.

Unfortunately, doesn't help in my case. I cleared my browser data entirely, but the re-login on page refresh still remains.

This seems to have helped for me at least (Firefox -> History -> telegram.org "Forget this site")

Not in my case, unfortunately. Let Firefox forget web., webz. and webk. - still no dice, a reload of the page requests a new login. webk though works fine!

Eno, are you seeing any errors in the browser console?
