Thank you Juraj for looking into this. I expected that distro/system versions
work normally as somebody would already notice such major issue. I don't use
whitelist/blacklist feature.

Today I reproduced the issue on completely clean installation with all the OS
and browser settings left on default values:
1. downloaded Kubuntu 24.04 live disc
2. booted the live disc of Kubuntu and installed all the updates
3. installed the newest stable snap version of Falkon (24.05.2)
4. checked Falkon preferences and see that cookies are allowed and not deleted
on close. Did not change any settings.
5. launched Falkon and visited few websites; before closing the browser window
I verified in Cookies Manager that cookies from visited websites have been
saved
6. closed Falkon, re-launched it again, checked Cookies Manager and seen that
all the cookies have disappeared
7. afterwards I uninstalled the Falkon 24.05.2 and installed its older snap
version 23.08.5 (candidate). Tested the cookies again and verified that it all
works allright with version

So this confirms that the issue with Falkon snap appears in KDE native
environment as well.

Furthermore, I repeated the steps above again with LinuxMint 21.3 live disc
(Cinnamon) and flatpak version of Falkon. Again, all the OS and browser
settings left on default values (verified that cookies are permanently
allowed). And again, I encountered the issue.

So, in summary it seems like Falkon flatpak/snap version 24.05.2 is being
affected on any Ubuntu based system. In total, I already tried:
Kubuntu 24.04 - snap
LinuxMint 21.3 - flatpak
Xubuntu 22.04 - tried both flatpak and snap
Xubuntu 24.04 - snap
