I just wish it was a native feature of browsers instead of something that is part of the page. Like, all the other permissions - camera, microphone, Bluetooth, USB, etc access - are native, why can’t be the “hey let me write some crap onto your device that other pages may or may not read” and “hey lemme see what I wrote onto your device when invoked from another website” requests be native too?
Because it would be harder, there are 2 types of cookies: essential ones, necessary for the site to work correctly (remember login, preferences and a bunch of other things) and there are other cookies that are not necessary, and there is no real way to add this distinction since the browser doesn’t really have any way to understand which are which;
Also, before anyone reply “but if i don’t want to remember my login?” Some sites still write temporary cookies to work
You can also see what cookies are wrote on your device with Developer tools
Adding support for two types of cookies instead of one (and having a default the browser sends to the site) isn’t black magic fuckery or some unachievable alchemical process. It’s done easily.
Yep, but would companies use them? I doubt, they want profit, they ain’t using that and companies often define standards, so the only hope is to propose to the EU to enforce it or smth

Librewolf doesn’t save cookies by default, and you can toggle them on if you need to
