alt Hacker NewsI've hit this over the past week browsing the web UI. For some reason, github sessions are set really short and you don't realise you're not logged in until you get the error message.
I really wish github would stop logging me out.

Something strange is going on. I think GH has kept me logged in for months at a time. I honestly can’t remember the last time I had to authenticate.

Yes, it's not the rate limits that are the problem per se but GitHub's tendency to log you out and make you go through 2fa.
If they would let me stay logged in for a year then I wouldn't care so much.

Hmmmm, Github keeps me logged in for months I feel like. Unless I'm misunderstanding the github security logs, my current login is since march.
