But the software already has multiple database systems built in. There's not exactly overhead to use what plumbing is already there, instead of writing to disk.

Firefox is absolutely abysmal at not corrupting its JSON stores, too. I've had it crash and lose tabs so many times. Perhaps moving back to SQLite wouldn't be a bad idea.

I had to recover somebody's bookmarks for them recently after it decided to destroy the main copy.

    @Chaosvex curious how you did that.

    • Thankfully, it makes backups inside the profile folder and has a bookmarks file import option that'll accept them.

      It does the same for session tabs (minus the import options) but that never seems to actually work.
