I have firefox as default browsers in both device (iPhone and Mac) and set up sync too. I happened to be a lot opening tabs in mobile firefox for unfinished reading which i wish to read later on. When i look for the way to save all inactive tabs from mobile, nearly all of advice (from Mozilla helps, from AI chat, from other tech pages) pointed to sync between devices. I did sync and close and clear tabs from mobile browser stupidly. To my horror, i can't restore those tabs from any devices anymore. I can access recently closed tab from history but not as the tabs i closed from mobile. The same scenario happened in Duckduckgo browser, Duckduckgo asked me the option to save those tab as bookmarks which i did and i can continue my reading easily. So, the question is, to streamline sync and save and restore tabs between devices, what setting in sync or what extension should i use?
