When I've had trouble signing-in to a commercial website, it often says, "Clear your cache." But in Firefox settings, it looks like clearing it will cause my frequently-used passwords to disappear. Am I reading that correctly? If it's true, how can I clear my cache without losing "remembered" passwords and other log-in information?

I'm not very tech-savvy, so need instructions in very plain, "for dummies" English. Thank you for any help.

Since the last update or two, cookies are filling up crazy fast - especially from Facebook - and I'm barely on it even these days. AND, I am not surfing other sites either, just working (claude/chatgpt only mostly).

Yet - this is JUST from today. How on earth is this possible??

I can't block cookies because things won't work the same - but this is ridiculous to have to empty everything constantly/daily.

What changed? Can you guys please fix this?
