I don’t like it when I go back to a tab and it reloads.
For whatever reason, I want tabs to stop changing. I don’t want the to reload from their javascript and I don’t want the tab content to be deleted by the automatic discard (to save memory)
If firefox decides to free memory, it should dump tab data and tab state to disk, not delete and reload from the website later.
Sometimes the website won’t exist later.
Somewhat related but this one is hard : Some website dynamically delete content after you’ve scroll past it (firefox) this means even if you scroll to the “true” bottom, you can’t ctrl+f search and you can’t freeze the page and read it all at your leisure and preserve it for later.
Currently my solution is to video screen capture the whole tab while scrolling slowly, this is quite a ridiculous step to take but apparently the only option to keep our data !?
Instead of making a video you could probably print to PDF

I tried a page like a closing facebook group and it printed like 2-3 out of 90+ pages.
I had some success with shareX scrolling screenshots but sometimes it glitches out too.
I think some kind of proxy and “full stream replay” is going to be needed. If only firefox could record a tab as if it were a virtual machine save state.
