💡 Request - Remember Login in Browser

Area

Proposal Pillar

Is there new design needed?

Yes

What?

Simple request to use a cookie or some other method to persist sessions on the same browser without having to use signData every time.

Why?

Many users (such as myself) use a hardware wallet and it takes a few minutes to sign each time. It's a bit cumbersome when I want to browse the Proposals section throughout the day to have discussions, but I keep finding myself needing to sign repeatedly.

How?

A cookie seems the most straightforward to me. Some other type of browser local storage might work too.

I believe JWT session authentication is now implemented for signing data. @nebojsact, can you confirm?

This appears to be partially implemented.

The logged in state remains on reload. But if i reload 4-5 times, it asks me to verify again. We need to confirm whether is count based or timestamp based, or there is a bug causing this behavior
