In my desktop Firefox I use Cookie Autodelete to keep a whitelist of sites whose cookies won't be deleted. All other cookies are deleted as soon as all tabs for a particular site are closed.
Android's Firefox, from what I gather, only give you two choices: delete all cookies upon quitting (not tab closing), or save them across sessions.
Unfortunately the extension above does not work on Firefox Android, and I haven't found any other alternatives.
Do you know of any alternatives or other solutions, to get a behaviour similar to the desktop one? (And also: how come that extension is not supported on Firefox on Android?)
Cheers!
You can use this method in Fennec/Mull as well.
also @recreationalplacebos@midwest.social thank you! I had no idea about this possibility and these Firefox forks. Looks a little complicated but I'll try it. From what I gather, Firefox plans to bring back full extension support in the future?
I feel like it's been around the corner for years now. I just gave up waiting and switched to fennec on fdroid (which is just Firefox with telemetry removed and a few nightly features enabled, more or less.)
Thank you. So many people speaking about Fennec, and I had never heard of it!
They most likely will but that's something I've been hearing about for years.
