It’s not even “Incognito” (what a misnomer too), this is a Gecko-based browser

    Cookies are not evil per se… but data mining companies made them like that.

    I’m administrating an online store and cookies are responsible for the customer’s cart, plus their user session / logged in state.

    As an admin I adhere to the “golden rule”, thus there are no creepy trackers on store. I don’t like them and I don’t want customers to face the same thing on websites that I manage.

    That said, cookies are needed for user session & fraud protection. Instead of nuking cookies we shall kick the trackers out.

      Yea but all that kind of functionality can work with (permanent) private mode as well. I don’t use a lot of web services so I can log in when I need or make a pwa like with Lemmy here.

        True. It can work with private mode, but not with browser set to block all cookies, or to nuke JavaScript 😅
