Firefox Quantum flashes white screen when I revisit idle tabs. This white screen has a loading disc (or flower) at its center. It seems that Mozilla has given Firefox a new "tab discarding" function like Chrome. I wish to disable it. If anyone knows what do I have to find and set to "false" on "about:config", let me know!
