Add-on summary

This add-on deletes the browsing history of a tab. It deletes the browsing history of the page displayed by the forward and back buttons of that tab. The browsing history of pages that are not displayed by going back and going back even if the pages visited in the past on that tab are not deleted. For example, if you visit Page A → Page B → Return to Page A → Page C, Page B does not exist in the tab history stack and is not deleted from the browsing history. Since the tab browsing history cannot be obtained from the add-on, the browsing history of the actually displayed page is deleted while returning to the previous page one by one. Therefore, the page may be reloaded. If you don't want to save your history, you can use Private Window, so, this add-on isn't very practical. I was consulted by a user about this add-on, so I just made it to see if the idea I came up with was feasible.

wow. so you finally made it. not sure if you remember but I asked you on dev.to for this. here's hoping you will read it: yes this is what I was trying to explain. I don't think these are restrictions. Usually one would only open one, two, three pages and then realize you don't need those. So no biggie with the going back etc. yes, i'll scrap something together 😅 thanks
