I would like to “loose” the (download/browsing/local cache) history not immediately upon closing Falkon, but only after ~7 days. I think an option to choose the duration for which data is kept would be useful, given that [quite some people complained when it got removed from firefox](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/854680).

I think deleting old data when closing the browser would be most user friendly.

Hi - just for reference, developers handle and check for feature requests in KDE products through the KDE Bugtracking System.

If you’re interested in submitting this as a wishlist item for Falkon developers, I’d recommend checking out the Community Wiki guide to getting setup and submitting tickets: [Get Involved/Issue Reporting - KDE Community Wiki](https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Issue_Reporting)
