Well, some people read something on a website, find it casually interesting - not enough to bookmark it, then later come across a situation where that website would be helpful and so have their browser history at hand to help find it again.
I’d just google the website again. Manually scrolling through tens of thousands of lines to find it takes forever, and if I search for it in the history I don’t see the advantage over DDG
People love porn. A classic joke is that apparently no one uses private browsing, so if someone got your history, they’d see all the weird porn you watch.
Why keep your browser history?

Sometimes, using a search engine fails you so having the browser history as backup might be difficult to use, but at least it’s a backup choice.
Why clear it? Genuinely wondering
I’ve set it to clear when I close the browser

Huh. Ok. Thanks for explaining
