i would have assumed something like that.
But i just tried it - closing the tab, modify only gol_session - open a new tab and to to GoL - still logged in.
Or is the session kept alive based on IP?

Let me know if there is anything else i could provide to narrow it down
I've added some extra logging to detect if there's any pages that don't get the session for whatever reason, to see if perhaps there's still a call somewhere that is missing it.
Without a confirmed method of getting it though (and I don't mean messing with cookies manually, has to be the site itself), it's extremely difficult to find.

I always call the main page first (https://www.gamingonlinux.com/ to be exact), no subpage. Is there any kind of browser log that could be of interest? Firefox' console doesn't seem to contain anything in that regard.
Do update me in a few days if you now see no logouts!
Edit: So far it seems stable, I've removed my own session and closed desktop/mobile browser - both keeping me logged in. Keen to see how it goes after a day or two,
