Is there a setting that can allow me to keep browsing history on LibreWolf "forever", i.e. without it expiring and getting dumped after some time?

It's not in the settings, but I'm willing to dive into about:config to do it.

Can't you do it in the Privacy & Security settings?

Check "Remember browsing and download history". Then click the "Settings..." button next to "Clear history when LibreWolf closes" toggle, and in the next screen uncheck "History"

It has worked for me. At least as far as I've noticed.

It seems to forget the history beyond a certain date. Like a year or so.

It is in settings though?
