every time i go to open a link it puts me in a new tab, even trying to use the original way of changing the preferences in the browser itself doesn't work, it either opens a new window or new tab. i dont like new tabs or new windows created while searching or opening links, please help :/

In many cases when one opens a new tab, the new one is opened on the right of the "parent tab". After reading the web page of the new tab, one often decides that the new tab is no longer useful and deletes it. Firefox automatically opens the tab on the right of the deleted tab, rather than resuming the "parent tab" on the left. This seems to be an ineffective design as probabilistically there are perhaps >90% chance one wants to go back to the "parent tab".

Q1: should Firefox change the default for resuming the left? Q2: is there a setting that user can change?

Not sure if this is the right place. There is a troubleshooting section in this article. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups

While it may be obvious, for some reason it didn't connect. I was trying to group pinned tabs. It doesn't work. I have to unpin them, if I want to group them. If someone could add to it? I'm likely not the only one.

Thanks, Jan

I am a loyal Firefox user and recently started trying out the vertical tabs feature. However, I noticed a significant UI issue: there is a very sharp right angle in the upper-left corner of the web page.

Currently, Firefox employs a rounded-corner UI design overall, and this sharp angle in the upper-left corner looks quite inconsistent, especially since the tab to its left and the address bar above it both feature rounded corners.

Therefore, I kindly request that this issue be addressed in a future update to provide a better visual experience when using vertical tabs.

Maybe this is counter intuitive, and/or I don't understand pinned tabs, but is there a way to have pinned tabs visible in the tabs list, instead of hidden.

I find it very inconvenient in a variety of ways.

On Chrome Android, the tab group feature is super handy. You can create tab clusters, easily group similar tabs together, and switch between them fluidly. It really helps when you’re multitasking or doing research across multiple topics.

Also, the tab accessibility on Chrome Android is just better. The tab switcher is placed at the bottom of the screen, making it effortless to access all open tabs with just a thumb tap no awkward menu diving or stretching to the top.

My Questions:

1. Is there any timeline or roadmap for bringing tab group functionality to Firefox Mobile?

2. Are there any known efforts or discussions around improving the UI/UX of tab switching such as adding a bottom bar for easier access, similar to Chrome’s approach?

Every time I accidentally close Firefox I lose all my saved groups on reopening. I can see they are still there but cannot see how to open them. They are such a great innovation. Please make it easier to restore them from previous sessions. Going through a search history and restoring them one by one is hugely time consuming when they are already there and just inaccessible. btw, I tried using scrounger (via troubleshooting) but the "Save List" is greyed out.

Running on Mac OS 15.6.1

When I want to duplicate a tab, can I configure the 'duplicated' tab so it appears exactly next to the tab I'm duplicating instead of at the end of all the open tabs at the far right end of my browser? If I can't would it be too much of a bother to include that as an option we can configure? Maybe it's ridiculous or I'm using the interface wrong but it's super annoying to have to manually grab the duplicated tab and scoot it back next to the tab you duplicated from. Thanks!

Hi, Since the search open tabs function is part of the overflow button in a horizontal tab layout, when you switch to vertical tabs, you lose that search function. Is there a way to add it to my vertical tab layout? Thanks, Scott

How can I load group of tabs I have a previously saved? I checked the article about tab groups: https://mzl.la/4iQYJr3

I'm using the vertical tab bar. I cannot find the List All Tabs toolbar icon shown in parentheses. Thanks for the help.

PROBLEM: Pinned tabs are useful, but if I have more than one Firefox window open and I close them in the wrong order, the next time I open Firefox, my pinned tabs are gone and I have to pin them again.

SOLUTION: Pinned tabs should be able to be permanent so that they will re-open no matter which Firefox window is closed first. Is there a way to make this work?
