Experiencing a peculiar issue with the latest version of Firefox for Android where search tabs get duplicated – notably, this problem is exclusive to Firefox and not observed in Firefox Beta. This duplication occurs when searching through the address bar – the first tab is the clicked link, and the second is a duplicate of the search page. Clicking on a link in the second tab leads to further duplications. This problem is more noticeable with Google searches in the search bar, but typing google.com and searching seems to works fine. Additionally, it's worth mentioning that this duplication issue extends to DuckDuckGo and Bing when searching via the address bar. It's a bit complex, as not all search links trigger the duplication, but most do. Any insights or solutions would be appreciated!
