  <p>It never goes away.
  And if I close the tab all of my work is deleted.</p>
  
  <p>This is a brand new Firefox install.</p>
  
  <p>Is this an attempt to force us back to using chrome with google docs?</p>
  
  <p>I have been a chrome user for many years but was recently forced to switch to firefox because chrome has an <a href="https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1062493" rel="nofollow noreferrer">intolerable bug</a> on macOS catalina.</p>
  
  <p>I need to use google docs but I can't use chrome because of this chrome bug and now I can't use firefox because of this bug with google docs.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a work-around for the problem?
  Chrome allows me to work with local copies of google docs without losing work if I lose my network connection, but I cannot find a similar plugin for firefox.</p>
