On Debian 13 GNOME laptop Firefox closed tab not added to *Recently closed tabs* sometimes, is it a known issue?
May 13, 6:00pm

As of May 2026, there are reports from users—including those on Debian with GNOME—experiencing issues where Firefox does not always add closed tabs to the "Recently closed tabs" list. This problem has been observed especially after updates or when using certain Firefox features like "Firefox View." In some cases, tabs simply disappear without appearing in the history or recently closed lists, which can be frustrating for users who rely on this feature for tab recovery.

This issue is not unique to Debian 13 or GNOME; it has been reported across different Linux distributions and Firefox versions. The root cause is not always clear, but it is a known and recurring complaint among Firefox users.

If you are encountering this, you might want to check if the issue persists with a new Firefox profile or after a clean reinstall. Would you like guidance on how to create a new profile or troubleshoot further?
