Hi. Two users reported that their skin preferences are not loaded (or not applied) on some pages (long pages).
Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- Have old vector selected. (or monobook, not sure)
- Go to long pages like WP:BAR or WP:DNU.
What happens?:
Page is loaded as vector '22.
What should have happened instead?:
Preferred skin should be used.
I don't know if you can try to investigate this. Maybe copy over his settings and check if you can reproduce? Or maybe there were other reports like that?

Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
This was right after the session changes were deployed so might be related. One user reported login/out helped. The other one said it didn't help.
