It’s crazy how loss of content is still so common in editors in general. It should be the norm to have some sort of low-level protection mechanism for that in any context where the user is inputting data. I guess there are privacy concerns in play, but still.
Now and again I run into apps or websites that do a great job in keeping data, or allowing the user to restore lost data. But it’s rare.
Perhaps this should be an OS level feature (password protected). You pick a time frame for it to keep any input that happens in any context. Then whenever you want you’d be able to check the history for latest content, and easily restore it as needed.
Sorry for the tangent.
