I can no longer log in to anything Kinja except Oppo from my home computer.  Same on mobile.  It just kicks me off when I jump blogs and won’t take my password.

Me too, but I’ve seen others complain, especially Burners.

Burners 

Kinja: Our password database got compromised!

Also Kinja: Let’s make passwords unchangeable!

Same. I figured out a sort of fix but it’s annoying enough that I don’t bother. There are two ways I’ve found. I’m on iOS. So first go into settings and clear all history and website data. You’ll be able to log in on the main sites temporarily. The other option is to enter private mode and log in and you’ll stay logged in on the main sites temporarily. I’ve got a convoluted password and 2 step verification so the effort required to comment far exceeds any reward.

I swear, we are seeing more changes and inconsistencies with these sites now than we did when they were rolling out weekly updates when Nick Denton was pushing Kinja development.

I sometimes can’t embed images with a URL, sometimes I can. I can sometimes embed YouTube videos, tweets, and Instagrams with a URL, sometimes I can’t. Sometimes using the add-an-image tool works with urls, sometimes not. Sometimes it logs me out. Sometimes I can’t see notifications or use the tools to access my settings. Sometimes it displays some old pre-kinja radio buttons and formatting.

Makes it not worth worth entering a discussion or visiting the site sometimes.

All the fucking time at work. It doesn’t help that some platforms are on a different schedule than others.

Giving Splinter writers your email login credentials is a bad idea

I couldn't log onto Jalopnik for about a year, then I suddenly could again. First post back, I get grayed. Fuck it.

...and then on top of that, every time I report a bug to the Kinja team (or other we bsites) , the first thing the y always want me to do is   clear cookies and cache . Which of course means I have to re enter my login on ALL the sites I frequent.

This worked for me.
