Is it just me or does the "remember me" checkbox on logins work less and less these days? Websites, mobile apps that use credentials, everything. It's bizarre.
I have a stock-standard setup of Windows 10 and iOS 9.3 with no blockers or cookie cleaners.

I have noticed the same, but for me it works fine on some websites and not on others. Seems to me it has to do with the coding of that particular web page?

Maybe they don't want to remember you.
What have you done to make them want to forget?

I think that some browser updates are killing the creds. Especially the Chrome had done it some times..

So it isn't just me. It works fine on my desktops, but my mobile and laptops can't seem to remember me.

Not just you.
I even have websites that used to "remember me" and now have forgotten me 
And no amount of bashing the keyboard or hitting the mouse seems to fix it, I'm now actually have to fully type out my email and password every time.
Such is the price off progress?

I've noticed this, but after some investigation it turns out to be combined with my own user error.
When I go to a website, I tend to use the autocompletion in my url bar. For instance, if I got to tickspot then I will be presented with a login screen. If I login, then I will be directed to my familiar page. In the browser, I just type 'tick' and hit enter, and the autocomplete does the trick. But I have to log in.
The problem is I have to log in. The reason why is I'm supposed to be going to 'foo.tickspot' and I am going to 'tickspot'. If I type 'tick' and then select the correct site, my credentials are remembered as I might think they should be.
I've noticed this happening often, when I think my credentials are being forgotten. They aren't actually forgotten, I'm just going to the wrong place. I think in the past these urls used to redirect us, and now maybe they aren't ?

Seems to be hit or miss. I really don't use the 'remember me' options since I started using my hand-rolled website keeper...now I just paste in the credentials. Easy!

Reminds me of a sky TV channel called "Zone" or Z
They occasionally and very deliberately show some of the worse Z grade movie ever made....
For some strange reason quite entertaining for a laugh.

No, it's really not a B movie; it's incredibly clever and funny.

Seems like a movie I've got to see

Seriously, it made my day. Not because of any religious fufurru, but because it's brilliantly written and brilliantly performed -- and bluddy hilarious!
(Movies don't get that kind of acclaim from me easily, so it should be taken seriously when it happens)
And I want to know what Kevin did next!!!
