Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS Firefox 123.0 (64-bit)

The browser deletes cookies when closed. Every time I log in, I need to re-enter passwords (they are saved) on all sites, this is certainly tiring. I read about a similar problem from other users, they had the “Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed” setting enabled, but I didn’t.

So idk why, but when i choose from "remember history" to "use custom settings for history" and clear "cache" and "form data.." only it works. but YouTube continued to ignore cookies (there was no auto login) throughout the day, and today everything worked.

Does it still happen with all your extensions disabled?

Do you see cookies in "Manage Data" immediately after starting the browser?

Note that "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" doesn't really mean much, what matters are the "Clear history when Firefox closes" settings.

You can try Firefox from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution to see if it behaves differently.
