Anyone else spend half their day re-logging in !!!!

Seriously..... website timeouts are becoming the absolute bane of my existence. We used to be able to open 15 tools in the morning and they would stay active for at least 8 hours until the end of the work day. Now I sign in to the password manager, sign into the site, get sidetracked by another task, come back 10 minutes later and im timed out of the site and timed out of the password manager. Then I have to logon to both yet again. This happends repeatedly over and over again all day. Feels like all they want us to get done is just spend half the day logging in and timing out. If I ever get control I always crank the timeout as high as it can go. Not giving us an 8 hour timeout is honestly insane. Heck at this point I'd take a 4 hour timeout, just let me logon 1-2x a day and be good. Yet another "security" feature that completely disrupts workflow. Not even going to mention MFA overload....
