nope, your fetch requests in the middleware arent cached and cant be cached

#

but your site still has caching

#

thats how you can cache your fetch requests in the middleware

I see, then what would u say about that that I have a middleware that is basically calling a getSession function that gets the token from the cookie, which was set by the login function above, and on all of my routes console does say cache: SKIP

ok so @still jacinth middleware runs on every request

#

since as i mentioned before, fetches from your middleware directly are never cached'

#

hence the skips

#

makes sense?

still jacinth
#

it does yeah

where we make a server action, and call that server action.. so technically its not your middleware making the request, its your middleware making a request to a server action which makes the request

#

obviously this makes the action a public endpoint as we were disucssing on #discussions but thats what i do

I see that make sense now, i was so confused 😄

No worries, its a weird thing

#

Some of nextjs stuff are...questionable
