Known issue

When a user logs out, that user's local storage session persists. As a result, the cart ID from the logged out user is retrieved and given to the guest user on the computer. This causes the following error when the guest user tries to check out: An error has occurred. Please check the input and try again. To resolve this issue, try disabling graphql session sharing as described in the GraphQL documentation on session cookies here: https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.4/graphql/authorization-tokens.html#session-cookies.
