How to keep Voyager from closing? (sh.itjust.works)

I just popped out to grab an image for a post, then realized I didn't have a photo app, then went to the play store to download Ente, then decided I should just download an image directly.... by the time I got back, Voyager had been closed and the draft was (apparently?) lost.

Any idea of how to prevent this from happening in the future?

And where is the draft supposedly saved?

Pay attention to them. They’ll lose context sometimes. Safari reloads tabs. You lose your place in Facebook or whatever. App Store goes from a search result to the homepage. Happens all the time. Some apps are better about saving context than others.

There should be a drafts section saving the post context, I agree. No idea how it would be done.

Yeah, I freaked out a bit just now because CPU 9 crashed on my Mint box and I thought I'd lost my post in Firefox, but it was right there when I opened the right history tab.

I think I'm just going to avoid leaving voyager mid-composition. I can add external links and media after I submit.
