Every day I have to log back in, I don't have this problem with other websites.

I can't reproduce this on Firefox 110. For reference, my QA session cookie is valid until April 1st 2023. You can check the expiration date of your QA session cookie using the Storage tab of browser devtools (F12 / Ctrl + Shift + I).

Nevermind, I thought you were talking about Q&A website. The asset library indeed has its expiration defined to a string "Session", which causes some browsers to delete it when closing the window: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4132095/when-does-a-cookie-with-expiration-time-at-end-of-session-expire

PS: I've removed the image with the session cookie contents from your comment, as it may be usable to steal your session on the Q&A platform.
