Steps to reproduce

Log in to your account, go to your account settings and open the option section. Change anything... I have noticed the bug, if I changed the option "Enable full width layout" and change the theme to dark. If I hit enter, everthing changed like expected. But after closing the browser and automated cleaning of the browser cache, every setting changed back to default at the next login.

Expected behaviour

Every account setting should persist.

Actual behaviour

Every account setting is set to default after closing the browser and delete the cache.

This is normal behaviour.
All user settings are stored locally in your browser cache there is no serverside storage for this configurations.

These settings are stored within the browsers local storage. If you clear those they are obviously gone.

Those settings are not stored server side.
