Tabs being lost when Firefox closed (Developer Nightly)

Good evening,

I've got an issue which I would have usually raised as a bug in bugzilla, but I'm finding it difficult to find the correct place to file it.

There is an issue where not all of the open tabs are being remembered when the browser is closed and reopened. This happens most often when I've opened a bunch of tabs from the Google news stream. Sometimes when I right swipe to go back, the next time I open Firefox those tabs are not always open. It doesn't lose all of the tabs just the most recent ones. The fact that I visited the page is recorded in the history, so I can reopen the page from there but it shouldn't be happening.

This is on a Pixel 2 XL running Android 10 with 5 February 2020 patches and Firefox Preview version:

Nightly 200307 06:00 (Build #2015727155) 36.0.0, db07d45dd GV: 75.0a1-20200306094739 AS: 0.53.0

Kind regards

Ian

Might be fixed by https://github.com/pocmo/android-components/commit/7be0e6ddb9bedf7a5c8c3986fad1f8e712827d24

If you still see this next week report a issue to https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/

Thanks for the advice. I don't think I've experienced the issue over the last few days, (not sure if that patch has made it into the Nightlies yet) so I'll keep monitoring and post it as a bug where you suggested if it is still a problem.
