I rely on my browsing history all the time. I don’t always know to bookmark a page the first I visit, oftentimes realizing its importance or utility much later.

I rely on my browsing history all the time. I don’t always know to bookmark a page the first I visit, oftentimes realizing its importance or utility much later.
I think that’s something you should ask before doing. Cache and cookies aren’t as important, but history is useful.

- deredede 3y agoCache may not be that important (although I believe that nowadays clearing the cache also clears the local storage, so the same would apply) but there are sites that use long-lived cookies to deliver a personalized experience without needing to log in which you would irredeemably break by clearing the cookies.
- em-bee 3y agoclearing the cache should not clear localstorage. it should be treated like cookies. in settings firefox has two categories for clearing data: 1: cookies and site data (which includes localstorage) and 2: cached web content history is managed in a different section of the settings.
