Yes this has been happening intermittently to me for the past 3 weeks. Haven't determined the pattern yet but sometimes I will notice I AM logged in.

So it is NOT just me! Whew.

@dang, not sure if this is your territory or not. I'm not sure of how to file a bug report :)

Update: turned out I could not log into any website! I cleared cookies, deleted all private data, turned on tracking, ensured cookies were enabled. Not worked. After reinstalling Firefox, I'm back in business. Fwiw, I also have had Firefox lock up twice this week on my laptop. I'm thinking that Firefox just is not as stable as Chrome :(

I'm on Fennec running Firefox 68.2.0 esr on Android 9. No extensions installed.

Tried logging in. No issues faced. Working find for me.

This has been happening me for about a week on Firefox Android too. When I restart Firefox it somehow works.

No issue at all with Firefox 68.2.1, OnePlus7, Android 10. Maybe you have some extension that is messing with your login?

Thanks for the suggestion. No add ons / extensions. Just one theme that changes the color scheme called "Default 1.0 - A theme with the operating system color scheme" which I think is just a normal default.
