[bug] Disconnect not persisting and reconnecting on page load about wagmi HOT 6 CLOSED

Ah ok yeah that makes sense! Happy to stick what the most default behaviour is in that case

from wagmi.

Seems like a this is a duplicate of #35 (as you noticed yourself in the "Edit").

For the solution: It normally should not prompt every time to connect again through MetaMask, since the connecting only needs to be established once. Could be an option in MetaMask? For me it is only asking once.

I would expect though that if I call disconnect after reloading it should ask me to connect again and not assume I want to automatically connect with the last used account

I thought it would work with autoConnect? This is a little misleading for you I think.
Having disconnected programatically is like visiting the page, without having connected in the first place. So, if the Provider sees autoConnect it will automatically search for the shim that was injected by Metamask, and try to connect.

If you want the desired behavior, you might want to implement ur own local storage, which is checking whether the user disconnected once in it's lifetime and set the autoConnect prop based on this local storage.

@sammdec MM (and other injected providers) don't support programmatically disconnecting.

I agree it's confusing to reconnect on page reload, but technically it's the most accurate since the account is still connected to the browser. (wagmi does handle disconnect events coming from connector directly. For example, disconnecting in MM UI.)

That said, you could manage connection status separately in the browser, but you would need to listen and handle different connection events (i.e. disconnecting or switching account directly through MM extensions).
