Firefox latest update - How to switch off automatic closing of duplicate tabs

The latest firefox update makes it so that when you have duplicate tabs open, if you close one, it closes them ALL. I had an issue where YouTube decided instead of opening a video in the same tab, it opened in a new tab, a setting I immediately fixed when I realized it had happened.

Unfortunately, I only wanted THE DUPLICATE TABS to close, not ALL of the tabs linking to that video. I wanted A SINGLE TAB REMAINING of that tab, but there appears to be no setting anywhere in Firefox to change that. Can anyone help???

To be clear: When I have multiple of the same tab, I only want to close the other duplicates, not all of them, so I can still go about my business on that one tab.

Ex: I open a YouTube video by accident in multiple tabs, I wish to watch this video without having to search YouTube for it again. I want to close the duplicates of that video tab, but not the original one.

It would be vary helpful if there was a frame setting that could be changed in the extension so I would not have to change it manually upload it an wait for it to be approved just so I can see the change.

Currently frame inactive is a option but at least on linux that wont change the inactive tab section color. An it does some weird gnome gtk workaround which at least on non-gnome is vary ugly. Personally In wish the team would use anything but gtk in the future.


Frame section:

The color of the header area background, displayed in the part of the header not covered or visible through the images specified in "theme_frame" and "additional_backgrounds".

See example json

"theme": {

 "colors": {
    "frame": "red",
    "tab_background_text": "white"
 }

}

I had to replace my old laptop. On that machine, all pages were set to come up with a black background and the page items also were in black.

Hi community!

For some reason, the short description of an email is now under the subject instead of besides it in the overview. This does something to my head that, atleast for me, makes it cluttery and hard to hover over who sent me email. I want a column with who sent me mail, then I want right of it a short description, the start of the mail, just like it always was. It takes vertical space so less email is visible and my head has to switch from "from" to "content" to "from" to "content" which is for some reason very tiring. It's one of the reasons I hate outlook... Please don't tell me Thunderbird changed into outlook -_-

How do I change this back to the way it was?

I just started getting bombarded with popup messages that say they are via walmart05.higherincomejobs.com. At the top of the message, it says Mozilla Firefox. As soon as I dismiss to x out of one another pops up. I can't figure out how to block or disable them. These are not text messages or emails, they seem to be popups on my ThinkPad laptop. I added a screenshot of them in the attachments. HELP!

It seems that my Bookmarks are opening SOMETIMES back onto itself. How do I adjust my settings so they don't seem like they overlap back onto each other? Wasn't sure if this was a Firefox setting I overlooked or a Windows 10 problem. Hopefully the attachment clarifies it more.

For years, I've been looking for a way to disable the space bar from acting as a page down button, including trying out scripts to solve it, but please let users disable that shortcut in the about:config page.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly

It is difficult for me, since I see that ability to change what the backspace does is available, but there's no option for the space bar. The space bar is something that I often accidentally hit, and it would be of immense relief to me to no longer have that issue of it paging down what I reading. This is my request, and there are others who also feel similarly.
