    Another thing!

    I'm very frustrated how Firefox is SO INCREDIBLY INCONSISTENT about, when I recover from a crash

    1. It reopens all my windows, even if there are 1,000 of them and this will create a problem

    2. It reopens no windows, but I can go into "History" and recover them from "restore previous session" or "recently closed tabs"

    3. It's gone! There's fucking nothing you can do!

    I had a group of tabs with links I was meaning to copy into a file to save for later yesterday. Didn't hurry :(

    Didn't occur to me "oh, you can't just leave a Firefox window open and assume it will still be open tomorrow. you are in the 1990s again".

    The thing about. Firefox, or Linux. Is to me they're "second choices". They're not what I wanted to be using. But I'm happy to put up with their little frustrations and frictions because they're ideologically better than the dead corporate works I left behind.

    Except then Linux and Firefox adopt corporate ideologies. The worst corporate ideologies. And suddenly these little frustrations and frictions become VERY UPSETTING.
