Cancelling on the connect screen blocks subsequent requests from this site to prevent websites from spam-opening popups. You can reload the site to reset and will see the connect window again.

Reloading stacker.news after dismissing the pop-up doesn't make it reappear.

I'm using Firefox 121 and Alby 3.6.0.

reneaaron commented 10 months ago

With dismissing you mean "blocking" it? Or simply closing it? Where do you exactly see this behavior?

I just tested it by

going to the login page
clicking the QR
dismissing the alby popup
reloading the site
clicking the QR code triggers the popup again

No, not blocking it.

With the Alby extension installed, I went to the home page. At that point Alby opened up asking if I wanted to connect (I believe that's the word used). Then I clicked 'cancel'. After that I was unable to make that popup reappear.

Eventually, I was able to login by:

clicking "login" on the home page
clicking "login with lightning"
copying the LNURL just below the QR code
opening Alby
clicking 'send'
pasting the copied LNURL
clicking 'continue' (at this point sometimes I got a very brief flicker showing the authentication screen but then a solid grey screen)
clicking 'login' after being prompted if I wanted to login (this request sometimes times out)

I didn't know you could click the QR code! I tried that just now (N=1) and that popup up the the elusive pop-up!
