Close all tabs immediately on close
What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?
I close all tabs when my job done and close fenix. There could be option added to Settings -> Tabs -> "Close tabs" like "Close immediately", so when I open fenix, no tab recovered from last session. I know we can use "delete browsing data on exit" but we need to press Quit on exit, i think fenix can do this automatically.
How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?
We need to close tabs everytime, it could be closed automatically.
Who will benefit from it?
Who closing all tabs on exit everytime

If ux/product teams decide, i can work on this. No AC change needed.
Edit: I made it work on my fork, if you want i can open pr, if not delete 😊
Dear @hakkikaancaliskan
Can you please review my bug and implement it.. Seems related to this...

@sheikh-azharuddin I'm not a firefox member. I'm just a random contributor. I don't have any authorization over any firefox product.
And that doesn't seem to be related with this.
This is a fundamental part of my usage pattern for Firefox on Fennec, and is actively blocking me from switching to the new version.
One comment that I've seen come up a lot is that Firefox doesn't have any way to differentiate between the app being closed through the app switcher versus the app being automatically closed by Android. I don't think this would be an actual issue for the sort of user who would take advantage of this feature, since they'd be less likely to have enough of their memory used up that the app would need to be killed, and aren't likely to have that many tabs open if it does get killed, so the "Recently closed tabs" feature should be more than sufficient to handle tab recovery.
This has not been solved after two years and a bunch of millions leaving after, why create functional problems?
I'd like to be able to close tabs on Firefox Mobile after swiping the app away, at least make it a configurable option again. I do NOT want to have to press the quit button then swipe the app away, it is not intuitive.
Came looking for a solution for this, I guess I'll leave my vote for this bug.
