The email client screwed up formatting again, here's how my previous email was 
supposed to look like:

Actually to amend the previous response the behavior you re describing
is present on firefox 60.9.0 that I m using as default. But I
downloaded for testing firefox 70.0 from mozila web site and same
behavior exists. Font size for a specific site persists across reboots
of the software. 

Interesting. Really don't want to mess with custom Firefox installs but I'll 
keep this in mind.
You definitely need in `about:preferences#privacy` to have
`History>remember History` enabled. Otherwise it doesnt work even in
the old versions! 

I do have "Remember HIstory" enabled in FF v68.

Thanks

Well 2 ways actually. Find the source code and patch it. Or go back to
version 60.9 esr. Unfortunately that behavior is not configurable as
far as I m aware.

Issues with firefox-esr upgrade [60.9.0esr-1~deb10u1 -> 68.2.0esr-1~deb10u1]

2019-10-28 Thread local10 
Hi,

Firefox v60 had a nice feature: One could go to, say, domain.tld/page_1.html, 
then increase/decrease the font size on the page and it would affect all pages 
in the domain.tld. What's more, firefox would remember the font size setting 
between firefox restarts. It's was a very useful feature for websites that 
mismanage fonts, making text either too big or too small.

In Firefox v68 it's no longer true. It appears font size increase/decrease only 
affects a tab (instead of website domain) and firefox only remembers the font 
size setting as long as the tab stays open. If the tab is closed the font size 
resets to default.

Any way to get Firefox v60 per domain font size behavior back?

Thanks
