Description

I usually don't want to keep the same logs after I reload the application so it would be nice to have an option in preferences to clear those as soon as the app reloads.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a new preference toggle in the settings page that clears logs and data on application reload. Modify the reload handler to check this preference before purging logs.
