It’s been twenty-three years since the day Phoenix was released, the web browser that eventually became Firefox. I downloaded it on the first day and installed it on my trusty HP Omnibook 800…
But the second time I opened it to find my tabs, browsing history, and literally all other user data, gone… Months apart, with thousands of saved bookmarks and hundreds of tabs lost each time.
I never went back. Deleting everything is just completely unacceptable.
I never found anyone else who’d have it happen, but twice was a pattern I didn’t care to repeat.
I enjoyed Vivaldi for a bit.
