I was recently forced to start my tabs from scratch again because I closed my main Firefox window while I had a private browsing window open. I finally adopted simple tab groups at home (been using it for work for a while) and was able to restore a bunch from history. But it's annoying that Firefox just overwrites/discards your tabs if there's another window open, especially a private browsing one where it's not saving anything anyways.

Ctrl + shift + n to get back that window you closed with all your tabs :D

It might be too late now but for the future. Has saved me multiple times

Oh nice, thanks! I'm sure it will happen again at some point!
