I use & love Firefox, too, but do note that the author's criticism directly applies to it, too: AFAIK, FF will not show you the individualized cookies, or all you to act on them individually.
Now, as you say, you can download an extension (and indeed, I do!), but I think there is some merit to it being in the base app. (E.g., not having to trust an extension. But also, it's part of Firefox's data, and FF should provide decent tooling for itself.)
- yborg 5y agoFirefox used to show individual site cookies in the Manage Data dialog, this was removed at some point.
- kenhwang 5y agoI'm running the latest developer build and it still has this. It only shows number of cookies by domain and allows deletion by domain, and you'd have to use dev tools if you wanted to look at or delete a single individual cookie.
- KORraN 5y ago> I'm running the latest developer build and it still has this. Hmm, are you sure about that? IIRC, Firefox 90 had ability to remove cookies per exact subdomain in that view (i.e. account.google.com), since version 91 there's only an option to remove cookies for whole google.com domain...
- prox 5y agoI don’t think so, but can’t test right now, pretty sure I deleted cookies and a cache for one particular domain recently.
- Sebguer 5y agoThe chrome change doesn't stop you from being able to delete cookies and cache for individual domains, it's the ability to inspect specific cookies.
- acabal 5y agoThat data is available in the developer tools, under the Storage tab. Individual cookies can be viewed, edited, and deleted. Not very useful for the average user, but the option is there and I doubt the average user even knows what cookies are, except that they're something you constantly have to click "yes" to nowadays.
