#Firefox desperately needs a toggle to keep your pinned tabs persistent. Accidentally open a new window and close them in the wrong order and POOF, all gone.
Are there any workarounds for this?
@killyourfm Meanwhile until you find a solution, I would just create a dedicated Bookmarks folder with tabs you intend to have always pinned (I can't live without pinned tabs too). So at least in case the pins poof again, you have them ready to open. Kinda a backup, but not ideal, as you have to keep the bookmarks in sync. Defeats the usability.
Maybe this addon can help, but I did not use it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/persistentpin/
addons.mozilla.orgPersistentPin – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)Download PersistentPin for Firefox. Pins the same websites across browser restarts.
@thingsiplay Thank you that's a GREAT suggestion to have them in a separate bookmarks folder.
