In case you're mad at yourself for closing your precious window with all the right tabs opened, note that Firefox allows to reopen recently closed windows (jlai.lu)

I generally have a "home" Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to "lose" it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!

Lol, just because you don't know you don't know something doesn't mean you have to be a dick about it. Tracking the order of your bookmarks means that they know what you're interested in right now, it's very similar to tracking what websites you're on. I guess you don't mind that either, cool, you do you.

Firefox isn’t tracking your bookmarks and selling it to advertisers, Firefox is open source. They keep your bookmark order as convenience so that you can have them in the order you like. Same goes for history, it’s just a tool to see what sites you’ve visited if you’re trying to get back to one, it’s not tracking you.

Okay, cool, then let me turn it off.
