tabs autimatically discarding

Post by fipau »

since update to FF 96 tabs are discarding "by themselves" (and reloading after clicking on the tab)
is that a new "feature"? How can it be stopped?

I had the extension "Auto Tab discarder" installed, that does exactly that, but even after deactivating this extension, the tabs are still diescarding!

Try setting the browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory pref to false as a test. (default true)
