Jorge Candeias<p>There's a way to have it running again, by going to about:config and changing a setting there.

bit101<p>A bit more...</p><p>I chose to delete history and cookies for everything but added exceptions to the things I really do want to stay logged into after I restart. That mostly works.

bit101<p>More on LibreWolf.</p><p>Likes:<br>- DuckDuckGo as default search engine. Check.<br>- "Ask to save passwords" disabled by default. Check.</p><p>Dislikes:<br>- Logs me out of everything and wipes history on restart. But I can turn that off.

bit101<p>OK then, trying LibreWolf (privacy based fork of Firefox).</p><p>First criteria: does it work?</p><p>- Got my important extensions installed and tested. Set up my pinned tabs.
