    auto-deleting all cookies when closing a tab.

    You know, I would never use auto-delete cookies because I want to stay logged into sites. However I do wish there was an extension or something that would delete all cookies except for manually whitelisted sites. Then random news websites wouldn’t be able to easily track all my visits, but I could stay logged into sites.

          In Firefox or any browser based on it:
          Open settings > Privacy & Security
          Under “Cookies and Site Data” check the box. For exceptions click the “Manage Exceptions…” on the right.

            Works great. Just wish it had an “export” button for the list so you could transfer the list between new installs/reinstalls

      On Librewolf the default is all cookies get cleared. When you go to a site you want to save cookies for, you can easily add it to the whitelist by clicking the lock icon in the URL bar and toggling on the “Keep cookies” option.
