If you don't have your browser set to delete all cookies you haven't made exceptions for, every time you close it, I don't know what to tell you. Except... "you should do that".

I use Firefox temporary containers. So not only are they deleted 5 mins after I close a tab, but different tabs don't share cookies unless I explicitly allow it or the tabs are opened from one source (e.g. open link in new tab)

[-] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.de 1 points 6 months ago

Sounds good. Is that an option on desktop and mobile as well? Do I need addons?

[-] DreamlandLividity@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

It does not seem available on mobile. On desktop, it is an extension called "Temporary Containers". You may also want the official "Firefox Multi-Account Containers" for managing sites where you want to stay logged in.

otherwise cookies might stay on your computer for 9993 years.

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I guarantee that they won't stay for that long on my computer.

Edit: nor yours, or anyone else's

The maximum age is 400 days in Chrome.

Privacy. By using containers and deleting cookies frequently, you can minimize the amount of tracking and data collecting these scum sucking corpos are doing.

[-] Carighan@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah but what about the other 99% of cookie use cases?

[-] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

You add an exception to your browser to not delete them for that domain, if you need the cookie for the website to function.

That way your sites keep working, and everyone else putting shit in your browser gets their stuff deleted.
