I can't think of any that would trigger the issue (I don't actually use a lot of privacy oriented extensions, uBlock Origin probably being the only one most people would consider as such), and I remember the issue going back pretty far before I started using extensions in general.
There's no "proper" way to close Firefox right? Just close the window itself? Sounds silly, but that is the only thing I could think of over the last few years when I tried to use it.
Oh, there's your mistake. If you close one window at a time, Firefox thinks you no longer want that window/pinned tabs, and only restores the last window still open when restarting. Close Firefox with Ctrl+Shift+Q or go to the hamburger menu and exit.
Ahh that would explain it then, that's going to take some time to retrain my muscle memory on closing Firefox then ๐
