    All that stuff you have saved isn’t important. You won’t even miss what you saved.

    That’s like not moving into a better home because you don’t want to lose what’s in your junk drawer in the kitchen.

    Edit. Three downvoted with no replies? No one cares to explain thier point of view?

      I perpetually want to document and keep things but learning that browsing history, tabs, bookmarks, and cookies are disposable trash that I know I truly don’t give a fuck about was enlightening. A clean slate is actually great!

      I didn’t downvote but I’m thinking of some extension configurations as things I don’t think have export/import support

      Man, what you said is so true. A few years ago, when I switched from Chrome to Brave (I now use Firefox), one of my worries was losing all the “important” stuff I had saved over the years. As you said, those things weren’t important at all, I don’t even remember what they were.

      For those of you who are like that: change now, you won’t regret it and if you really need to save something, just copy/paste those links into a word or any other program.
