What's the limit on devices?

So there's this glitch that enables you to be logged onto the same acc on different devices without signing you out. It happens if you've logged into the same acc quite frequently on different devices. Originally I thought the number of devices caps at 2 but I somehow managed to stay logged into 3 devices (my computer, my phone, and a device I don't own but use for educational purposes). So what is the max amount of devices you could be logged into?

What's the limit on devices?

Honestly IDK bc I've been able to log in to many profiles and OSes completely fine:
My browser / operating system: Windows 7, Chrome 156.0.0.0, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: Windows 7, r3dactedfox 140.0, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: Windows 7, Firefox 115.0, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: Windows Vista, r3dactedfox 153.0, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: Windows Vista, Firefox 128.0, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: Windows Vista, Newest Lun3r, No Flash version detected
My browser / operating system: Windows Vista, Supermium 144.0.0.0, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: OS X 10.9.5, PowerFox 153.3.0 ESR, No Flash versions detected
My browser / operating system: macOS 11.3, Chrome 138.0.0.0, No Flash versions detected
I can't tell if it's supposed to be a bug or not

There probably isn't a limit, or at least I have never experienced one, and I only ever sign in to two devices at one time. I might be wrong on this one, but I don't have enough devices that can use the modern web at home to test this out.
I guess this is an excuse to purchase 20 2015 dell optiplex PC towers…

Yeah I haven't had the log out issue for a while, and that problem also happened to me, even if I was logged in only using one browser profile or OS

I have tried logging in on safari, edge, chrome and brave on one device. So far, so good. Now to try logging in on another device (ideally with the same number of browsers XD)

What's the limit on devices?

Has anyone been able to login through the OS for Nintendo Switch or through the PlayStation web browser app? I know a few people have done it before with the hidden Switch browser but haven’t heard about it with PlayStations’ yet.

I’m just genuinely curious about it honestly. Also, I don’t think there’s much of a limit outside the scope of OS’, but I think some wouldn’t let you log in if they’re obsolete or complicated to browse and navigate through. It depends and varies on different browsers and general user operating systems, I think.

I don't think it would be any different from a normal OS browser although I haven't personally tried it…

as much as I'm aware, there isn't really a limit,
scratch usually keeps our account logged in for all our devices.
but your account can sometimes be logged out if you reset/power down your device, but the password will still be saved onto your browser (if you selected save password).

Tried with every device in the house (8?) no sign out yet (before you say I’m rich, I’m in a family of 6, this is including phones and my school computer)

Dang that's a lot. That goes to prove TW1ST3DXD's point that there is no limit.

Might keep this open for a little longer

I have tested this out, I have logged onto multiple accounts since then to see if I was wrong.
but there is no limit, that's the final answer.
