This isn't a feature I ever needed or ever wanted. More than often, I accidentally group two or more tabs and have no idea how to ungroup them (yes, I know, there's some about:studies where I can remove stuff from grouped, BUT it's not a good mitigation). Firefox has been a great browser for decades. This new "feature" is rather disturbing than helpful. I understand some folks might need it, but please, at least provide a way to OPT OUT. Thank you!

I recently decided to try vertical tabs in Firefox, and can't find a way to search these tabs as I could when they were horizonal, with the downward pointing arrowhead. If this is a feature, please let me know how to add it to my sidebar, and if not, it would be great if this feature could be developed. Thanks!

Firefox not honoring "open in background" setting on other apps all of a sudden

Losing my mind on this one.

Have 2 Macs I use at home, both running FF 141.0 and Sequoia 15.5.

Use Reader for RSS and Airmail for eMail. Both have settings to allow links clicked in those programs to open browser tabs in background. Handy way of banging through newsletters and RSS feeds before shifting to browser.

One on Mac, that open in battleground setting on both apps works as it has for, oh, last several years. On the other Mac, a few days ago that open in background stopped working with Firefox. It does work properly on Chrome and Safari if I set them as default browser (and, as I mentioned above, on my other Mac).

I've tried resetting Firefox on this Mac using the troubleshooting menu and have also cleared the Firefox cache. I even tried resetting the launch database in that Mac, although the fact Chrome and Safari are working fine suggests the OS isn't the culprit.

I'm unaware of having changed any settings, but am aware that "idiot user" may be the issue.

Regardless of how this happened, any ideas how to sort this annoyance out? Thanks!

Up until now, if I search using the Wikipedia field on the menu bar, it opened in a new tab, just like using Startpage does. I've just upgraded to Fedora 43 and Firefox 146.0 (64 bit) and it's stopped doing that, although Startpage still does. How can I get that functionality back?

Hello, I closed my browser, expecting it to save my current tabs as it usually does. When I reopened it, the tabs were gone. They were important for me, and some of them were pretty old so I can't find them in my history. I tried checking the "recently closed tabs" option, it didn't help. There was also no option to restore the previous session. Can you help me restore my lost tabs?

Previously, I was able to click on an image in a page, then it would appear below that pre-click. Then, if I wanted to view the image link, it would open that link in a new tab. Now, for some reason, when I try to click to the new location, it opens it in my existing tab, rather than a new tab. How can I fix that?

We hate this useless so-called feature and you've completely failed to give us an OFF switch! It's been many months with countless complaints and still no OFF switch! We've had this conversation before, all of your ideas must come with an OFF switch, especially so for the dumb ones like tab pinning! You don't ever force this dumb crap on us, ever!

Where is the fkin OFF switch already!?!?!?

Hi, I have a large number of tabs and also have pinned tabs. When I click a link outside of Firefox (FF is my default browser) it always opens them at the end of my tabs (on the far right). I would prefer that the newly opened links open at the beginning of my tabs (the far left) but just after my pinned tabs. Is there a was to do this?

Thanks!
