    It can handle them just fine – they’re meant to be impermanent. They never claimed you can keep hundreds of tabs open forever.

    I can hammer in nails with the back of a screwdriver. That doesn’t make it the right tool for the job.

      Sessions aren’t restored by coincidence. They’re meant to be persistent - that’s why there’s a mature and stress-tested feature to keep them persistent.

      Go whine at someone expecting their hammer to work on a thousand nails. They don’t write on the packaging that it’ll work that long! It’s only designed for a couple dozen nails, and then you throw it out.

        Tabs also need to be closed occasionally for major updates. You know how I know that? Because it happens regularly enough that you’re here whining about it.

        You’re welcome to keep banging your head against that wall, but if you publically whine about how it hurts your forehead, people are gonna tell you its your own fault. And they’re right.

          The browser needs to be closed. The tabs persist… because they’re saved, and then restored. You know how I know that? Because I’ve been doing it for TWENTY FUCKING YEARS.

          When that goes wrong, it’s the software fucking up. Same as deleting your bookmarks, forgetting all your passwords, or erasing your whole profile. All of which I’ve also dealt with, and if someone told me I’m stupid for calling that an error, I’d slap them.

          I’m not fighting anything except your ignorant horseshit comments - the software works how I want. Only you whiners think it’s not supposed to. Like Mozilla made it work this way by accident. Fell ass-backwards onto increasingly reliable session restore options.

            Obviously you haven’t though, right? Or you wouldn’t be here complaining about how that doesn’t work…

            And yet you’re here bitching about how it doesn’t. Make it make sense.

                When something is true for all browsers and happens “several times a month” – thats not a glitch. That’s how it works.

                  You’re quoting where I mentioned forced reboots. That’s not how this works. On the rare occasions where Firefox fucks up your profile in any way - it’s an event, and it’s a problem.
