It erases your history every time you close it so it helps you sharpen your memory.
That's why I don't use password manager and learn every unique randomly generated 22-character password by memory. I can't remember my mother's name but at least I can log into myspace.
Thanks, now I know exactly how many characters there are in all of your passwords. This will greatly reduce the time to crack all your accounts on my potato laptop.
That is a Firefox setting. I use it on my phone.
I use it on my arch machine
That only works if you use the 3 dot menu and press Quit, unless there's another setting I don't know about.
It works when you close the window, with the exception of Mac which requires you to fully quit, just like any other Mac application.
I am 100% positive that it is NOT working for me upon fully closing Firefox on Android.
I am not saying you are wrong. I can remember having that issue in the past. I don't know if it is fixed by now. I just use the quit.
While annoying if it is still the case on Android, I primarily wanted to express that it is a Firefox feature in general.
You are correct. I use it on desktop and it works fine.
Yup same here. So instead I just set my tabs to automatically close after 1 day. Not perfect, but better than nothing.
That's.. one way to look at it.
