Firefox Pinned Tabs are a worthless feature
So the concept of pinned tabs is now commonplace across most browsers. But I find Firefox's implementation to be absolutely stupid. So the purpose of a pinned tab is to KEEP the tab there. However in Firefox if you pin a tab, then open another window - the pinned tab isn't there. Then if you happen to close the window with the pinned tab, it's gone! What is the point of having pinned tabs if they aren't TRULY PINNED?!!
If you want to see how pinned tabs are done right, check out Apple's Safari. My message to the Firefox desktop team is...FIX THIS CRAP! Thanks

Hi
In Firefox pinned tabs are window specific, this means that all windows can have their own set of pinned tabs. If you accidentally close a window with pinned tabs, then you can undo this and reopen this closed window (Ctrl+Shift+N).
Use one of these to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox Title bar, especially if you have multiple windows or Private Browsing windows open to prevent losing tabs in unnoticed windows.
- "3-bar" menu button -> Exit (Power button)
- Windows: File -> Exit
- Mac: Firefox -> Quit Firefox
- Linux: File -> Quit
You can check "History -> Restore Previous Session" and "History -> Recently Closed Windows/Tabs".
