Youtube cookies are not cleaned on tab closed #199

Closed rkuralev closed 4 years ago

rkuralev commented 4 years ago

Firefox 70.0.1 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, extension version 2.2.5 Youtube cookies are not deleted when I close all youtube tabs. It doesn't happen even if I manually create a rule to delete all "*.youtube.com" cookies on leave. Local storage for the domain is not cleaned either.

This is most likely a misconfiguration or misunderstanding. Please check the settings tab if cleanup on domain leave is enabled for cookies and local storage. Also verify, that no other tab has a youtube video shown at the time of closing the youtube tabs, since embedded youtube videos currently count as if you still have a tab open.

That was the problem!
