Dev channel update to 87.0.664.8 is live
josh_bodner Hi Josh, I mean this semi flippantly but also semi seriously - you wrote this "Today, the bug that caused that behavior has been fixed, but the fix causes the exact same behavior. "
Does this mean the bug is fixed or not? To me, reading it says that the bug is not fixed.
Would have been handy to have proof read this, I think. Would it not be clearer to say "We've attempted a fix in this build but we've since found, it doesn't work - we're working on it further"?

MikeDiack In this case, the bug is actually fixed! It's the way we fixed it that caused the same thing to happen. Basically, we were trying to merge some code in from Chromium, and that changed the storage for the current session, which was the first time peoples' tabs were lost. Unfortunately, we couldn't leave the code as it was, and the safest way to fix it was to just undo those changes, which in the process changed the storage again, which was the second time peoples' tabs were lost.
In the meantime, we've also identified an issue where peoples' sessions weren't written to storage for history, which is what's affecting the people who can't restore their windows from history because they aren't there.
