I often have to cross-reference websites and web pages, occasionally keeping a tab up as a "note to self" for later. While I quite often use Firefox's bookmark feature, not all of my research or gaming tabs are something I plan to need in a day's or week's time. Right now I have over 40 tabs up. I go through my tabs multiple times a day, to see which ones I can go without. When Firefox updated, it changed the tabs on Android to screencaps with no text labels, and thus because several of my cross-references are often from the same websites, it is impossible to tell my tabs apart, without visiting every single one. As screencaps, the tabs also take up more room than in list form, meaning I have to scroll up and down several pages, clicking on similar pictures until I find the right tab. This has made both my scientific research, as well as my game experiences, a lot harder, and the only advice for it that I could find, was a suggestion to install previous versions of Firefox, after all the possible vulnerabilities have been announced in each update. All I want are my tabs back. Also for some reason, this page deletes all text, after two sentences, so I had to type all this in a text program.

Aaand then I finally found another person on the forums, having the same tab problem. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1288172 Yay, my tabs are usable again! Also, in typing this reply, it kept deleting all my text every dozen words or so. I again had to use a text program, which is frustrating. I do still wish someone would look into the problem with error reports having their text deleted as it's being typed. I know I categorized my complaint under "tabs", which it was, at the time, but the text deletion thing is still an issue.

Hi

If you open the Firefox for Android menu, select Settings and Tabs, you will be able to change to a list view.

The second issue you mention, I have seen before, but it is not necessarily a Firefox thing. if you open the Android Settings app, select Applications and clear the cache of the keyboard app and Firefox (as well as other apps on your device) and restart your device you should find this improves,
