Hello, when firefox shows my "recent" history of websites I visited, how many days back does this "recent" history account for? Example, I visit a website 3 weeks ago, would it still be listed under "recent"? Or is "recent" only websites I visited in the last day or two? Is there a time frame? Thank you.

Well, looking at my history I have stuff going back to 2018 in the Older than 6 months section of the History dialog. I am guessing it considers all of it recent history.

There is no time frame, but there is a maximum number of pages that you can see on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page.

    History can store a maximum of xxxx unique pages
