export default async function ProfileLayout({ children }: LayoutProps) {
  const user = await getUser();

  if (!user) redirect("/");

export const getUser = cache(async () => {
  try {
    const { getUser: _getKindeUser } = getKindeServerSession();
    const kindeUser = await _getKindeUser();
    if (!kindeUser) {
      throw new Error("Kinde user not found");
    }
    const dbUser = await db.user.findUnique({
      where: { email: kindeUser.email || "" },
    });

    return dbUser;
  } catch (error) {
    // console.error(error);
    return null;
  }
});

what are you using for the authentication?
Selkirk RexOP
kinde auth
as u see here
and google oauth fully managed by kinde
u think kinde loses the user object
i mean its not like when i save code
after a few saves this i am automatically redirected to home page
i logged the error as well
i dont understand why user session should be lost cookies is not deleted right?
