Clear History Whitelist?

Unread post by m1k3io » 2022-10-03, 11:12

Hello everyone. Is there a way to whitelist which history/cache gets deleted in settings? I have it set to clear cache when PM closes. I do this because I use Fatdog64 (Linux distro) which runs off of a USB stick with an encrypted save-file. I try to keep the save-file as small as possible and as you can imagine browser cache grows quickly. However, there are some sites that I would like to keep cache for. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for your insight.

Disk cache is not domain-bound so there is no mechanism to selectively keep cached files for a certain domain (it would also be complicated with the way the modern web works, since many sites pull data in from other hosts and domains for CDN/etc. reasons).
