> Page caching is way too aggressive. It's not acceptable to show days old versions of a website in a new tab. Yet, this happens to me on pretty much all news websites and blogs that I visit. Including HN. I have to reload freshly opened news websites to get the current version. To me this feels like a bug and I hope this is not actually intended behavior (that would be seriously misguided).

If this is with collections, apparently it's intentional: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/10417

Yikes. It's broken, plain and simple. I'm surprised that there is any debate about this in Mozilla about this being a bug or a feature.
Yeah, they seem to be more interested in doing UX research and "highlighting value" of this broken feature: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/5652
