I wish tabs on mobile wouldn't just disappear without no way to reopen them if you accidentally closed them.

If a tab is cleared by swipping and hasn't been recently visited, you better hope that you've remembered what it was cause it won't show up in your recently closed tabs and history settings >:P

For real. I love Firefox but the mobile app is just not good. I have to use Chromium instead of Firefox on my phone because of how choppy and buggy it is ๐Ÿฅฒ

Oh i personally use Firefox Focus on mobile. One tab, and all history is erased once the tab/app is closed. I can understand if you're using the normal Firefox app and it isn't behaving how you would like, and how that can be frustrating.

It looks like firefox has an option to reopen closed tabs on mobile though. Not sure if you can access this or not.

Unfortunately that was what I was referring to in my original comment. I also sent Mozilla a request to fix this as it's not working as intended but I haven't received any updates or replies since like 3-6 months ago.

At this point I think Mozilla might be prioritizing AI garbage so I'm fully jumping ship to Librewolf. In the next couple of months to year or so I'm gonna try and figure out how to port Librewolf to Android, or just buy a Linux compatible phone.

What version of Android are you using?
