The destructiveness of "close tab" is not equivalent. Control-shift-T will instantly undo the close-tab action. And there is a menu item that lists "recently closed tabs".
Try finding the menu item that brings back the app once you've quit.
- fiddlerwoaroof 6y agoOne of the most annoying things about Firefox is its limited reopen close tab implementation: I’ve gotten really used to Safari’s behavior here and is really irritates me when I can’t reopen the last tab because it triggers whatever Firefox uses to reset the history.
- eyelidlessness 6y agoSpeaking of Safari having good UX around undoing state changes that I miss in other browsers: why can a website put a navigation in another tab, but I can’t press back to get out of it in any other browser? (Safari’s implementation isn’t perfect and I can think of ways to improve it, but a simple “yep I didn’t want to go here” should be just as effective if the website specifies `target` as when it doesn’t.)

- eyelidlessness 6y ago> The destructiveness of "close tab" is not equivalent. Control-shift-T will instantly undo the close-tab action. And every browser has a way to reload tabs from the previous session. Both are equally destructive if the tab/s had state you were not finished with and don’t preserve that state when reopened. At least quit can be guarded with an “are you sure?” prompt out of the box. > Try finding the menu item that brings back the app once you've quit. The um... Dock or Taskbar or Start Menu or Spotlight or every other thing people use to launch apps every day?
