Hi I noticed that some old links in my history are automatically deleted. How to configure expiration rules (if possible) in order to keep links forever, until manual deletion? I know that links can be saved in the bookmarks, but when browsing the Internet, unless bookmarking everything :(, no one knows if a link can be useful in the future.

Thanks for your help

How to stop firefox from adding elements to drop down menu in address box

As of a few updates ago, Firefox keeps adding items to the drop down menu in the address box. It used to have all the sites I went to to check out headlines, but it started adding things I hardly ever use. For instance I went ONE TIME to the "no calls" registry to register my phone number, and for a month that was in that drop down menu. Another, I have a number of tabs that are always open, like the weather and local radar, etc. A number of them are now in my drop down menu. So, somehow Firefox decides to drop items that I go to EVERY DAY, and put in other things it likes, like the no-call phone registry link. I would like a setting that doesn't allow it to decide this. Or the ability to delete items it adds and say that I don't want these things in that menu. It's fine that it keeps all the items I go to every day, but stop dropping them to add the links to tabs that are ALREADY open in my browser.

Clearing history when Firefox closes is a security issue that should be kept as clearing history manually after every log in is unnecessary which is why it was part of firefox settings, I would really appreciate less bloatware and keeping what I always used in settings. Omitting clearing history when firefox closes is a breach of security not an added security. Thank you, P.S. Please consider changes carefully before you make them or you may wind up with more of what isn't wanted or needed and less of what is wanted and needed.

Back button overshoots when a web form performs a POST to the same URL as the previous GET

Greetings,

I am having this issue since Firefox 155.0.1 or a bit earlier (but overall rather recently) and I still encounter it with 156.

When a web page has a web form that performs a POST request without changing the URL, the behavior seems to have changed. Let's assume I have done the following:

1. I navigated to an overview page (GET https://example.com/overview). 2. I clicked on a link to a page with a form (GET https://example.com/formpage). 3. I filled out and submitted the form (POST https://example.com/formpage).

Now, when I click the Back button,

Can I somehow return to the previous behavior?

Thanks!
