Overtime android seems to balloon in storage size.

I tried deleting history and data inside the app, it lowered slightly then shot back up.


I does not always go up, seems i can go days or weeks wothout a noticeable increase, my guess it is happens whenever android is managing stored memory on apps, i recently restarted and it grew again.


I have tried remote debugging over usb on a mac and could not find anything taking up any amount of data that would account for this.


I dont really know what to do, i would like to avoid uninstalling the app and manually readding pw thing or gaving to save them to firefoxs cloud save. Eventually i will have to as phone storage is getting very low.


I mostly just watch YT on a regular tab, and browse the web in private tabs. I have ublock , no script, video backgroundplay fix as enabled addons, if any of that helps. None of them had a big memory footprint in remote debug.

This sounds like:

If you're able to debug your way around the db/storages, could you check if the same SQL file might still be the culprit?

It would be helpful to file a new bug if the maintenance is still not running for you on that storage. Thanks.
