I got a popup from my browser saying i might lose some functionality on slrpnk.net unless I clear the data. Then it brought me to the cookie settings. I’ve never seen this behavior from a browser before.

I could see that the cookie is nearly 10mb. But the (shitty) browser gives no way to look at the cookie contents and I’m not immediately motivated to track it down on the hard drive. Any idea what I can expect to find in there? IOW, what do I lose by clearing it?

    Hmm, I never looked into it myself, but it should be just the token for logging you into your account and the secret generated by the PoW AI scraper protection.

    So if you delete the cookie you will have to do the AI scraper check again (this is automatic) and then log into your account manually.

    What browser are you using? Because that sounds indeed a bit odd.
