Yea, works fine for me - and this is the first time I hear people complain that they constantly have to log in again with 2fa. This certainly isn't intentional. Sounds like a bug that only affacts a few people... or are people so used to pain and suffering that so few complain about it?
Something like this has been happening for about a week with me.
Most of the time my session doesn't work across projects. If I log in to the English Wikipedia, I have to log in again to mediawiki.org, Hebrew Wikisource, and Wikidata, and every time I need to type teh 2FA token. It wasn't like this earlier.
I've been using 2FA since the password attack on May 4, but this only started happening to me last week.
I'm using Firefox 63 (Nightly).
