All the incognito browser windows share the same “session” in Firefox. So say you open an Incognito window to browse Facebook or something, then you open another Incognito window, this new incognito window is linked to the previous incognito window, meaning you are logged into Facebook at that new Incognito window as well. This is because, as I explained before, all the incognito windows share the same “session”

The only way to clear incognito window is to close ALL of them and then create a new incognito window. You dont have to close the main non incognito Firefox window though, just close all the incognito windows. Then open a new one, now your previous session is destroyed and you are new again.

You may know it but its not that common knowledge as it should have been

Do you know if this is available for Android’s Mull?

I’ve tried looking for the option but haven’t found it.

Can’t say I’m familiar, sorry

I’m pretty sure it would still be implemented at the engine level for mobile but AFAIK at least the regular mobile Firefox has nothing for it in the frontend

No worries! Thanks for getting back to me!

It would be pretty cool if Mull did this as well, surprised it doesn’t.
