isn’t tor supposed to delete all your browsing data (history, cookies, tabs, etc) when you close it (similar to the new identity button)?

Can you check your Tor browser and see if it is saving your history?

Can’t answer to Tor—haven’t even tried it in years, but I know on Windows, Firefox totally ignores the whole “reopen tabs on restart” pref if you close the last window via the red X in the corner. You have to use control-shift-Q or show menus and select File->Quit if you’re going to quit it in a way it understands as requesting you to reopen the tabs again next launch.
