Hello,

I have recently updated my Discourse instance to 3.0.4 version

When I leave the browser tab open without any interaction, I notice that the number of online users is updating but it is not correct and the avatars are duplicated (same users many times).  
 ![clipboard-202307271651-ysena](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/optimized/4X/9/3/5/9350c2a71a7272a0afa37f58b4f6bd0661d9faa0_2_690x60.png)

Also, when i refresh the page, most of the users disappear as they are no more online.

Any help ?

Thank you in advance.

There were some changes to that side very recently. It may be fixed oh the current release.

@pfaffman Thank you for your answer, you mean that there will be a new release of the plugin to fix that ? or it will be fixed on a new release of Discourse ?

Hmm. I must be remembering something different. The most recent release was 2 weeks ago.

You have upgraded discourse recently and still have this problem?

Do you have a [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true)? Is redis working?
