Cookie exception list isn't saving
When I close Firefox and open it again the cookie deletion exception list is empty. The issue happens on my macOS/Linux/Windows installations.
I am using custom settings for the history. I setup Firefox to delete the history when I close it but I selected only Cookie, Cache and Offline websites data. All the other options (i.e. website settings) are unchecked.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Losing the exceptions can still only be caused by losing the "Site settings". If you aren't clearing the "Site settings" then there might be a problem with the permissions.sqlite file that stores the exceptions.
Note that checking/toggling "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" can make changes to the "Clear history when Firefox closes" settings.
- Settings -> Privacy & Security
Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history":
[X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" -> Settings - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-browsing-search-download-history-firefox
- using "Clear history when Firefox closes" in Firefox 102+ honors exceptions and keeps cookies with an allow exception, previous versions removed all cookies
- clearing "Site settings" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exceptions for passwords and other website specific data
Do you think it is possible the permissions.sqlite file is broken and synced to all my installations? Can I safely delete the file in order to make Firefox create it from scratch?
I do confirm I have "Site settings" unchecked under "Clear history when Firefox closes" -> Settings.
Some preferences like related to keeping and clearing can propagate via Sync, but data stored in a SQLite database like permissions.sqlite isn't part of Sync, so it is likely that something else is wrong,
You can try Firefox from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution to see if it behaves differently.
