Trying to get stuff done. It's hard when you start a task in one tab ,switch to another tab to start another task, and when I switch back to the first tab, it hadn't completed the task, it actually paused when I left it. What's the point of multiple tabs, when only one is working at a time? I expect it to continue with the task, while I go elsewhere to complete a different task.

I'm really enjoying tab groups, but there's a feature that seems broken. After restarting my browser, I'd like to reuse the groups I've previously created. It appears you've added a menu option for that: "Add Tab to Group" -> "Closed Group" Unfortunately, selecting that just closes the selected tab, rendering those closed groups permanently closed. I can go ahead and add my tab to a new group with the same name, but that creates a duplicate item under the "Closed Group" menu. After using the feature for a bit, I know how quite a long list of duplicate items under a totally useless "Close Group" submenu.

Last night Firefox on my laptop performed an automatic Firefox update.. The Firefox that was installed can only display a single tab. This is a major for me, since I normally work with multiple tabs. This problem may impact a large number of Firefox users. The documented recommended fix for this problem did not fix the problem.

Restore Tab Behavior Change

Until the most recent version(s) (at least through 148), if I have multiple windows open, the restore tab hotkey (control + shift + t) would open a closed tab in the previous window it had been closed in. Now, it opens the tab in whichever window I currently have focus on. It also used to remember the tab's previous location with regards to order among other tabs; now it opens it at the end of all tabs.

Example: I have two windows open, window A and window B. Window A has 5 tabs; window B has 10 tabs. I close tab 3 of Window B.

Old behavior: Pressing restore tab hotkey (control + shift + t) would cause the closed tab to always open in window B regardless of which window currently had focus, and would open it between tabs 2 and 4, as tab 3 again.

New behavior: Pressing restore tab hotkey (control + shift + t) will now cause the closed tab to open in whichever window has focus, A or B, and open as the last tab; for instance, if I am in window A, it will open as tab 6, if I am in window B, it will now open as tab 10, instead of tab 3.

Is there any way to restore the old behavior? At the very least, to get the windows to separate out the restore tab lists? I don't want tabs restoring to incorrect windows.

If firefox is closed and i click on a link in an email, 2 windows open. one blank and the other with my linked page. I can't find anything in the settings to change this. Before it did a similar thing but it was opening 2 tabs in a single window. One blank and one with my requested link. I recall chaning something that got rid of the 2 tabs opening but don't recall what and can't find anything. Apparently that change changed it from opening a 2nd tab blank, to opening a 2nd window blank.

Feedback Content

I really love Firefox’s new Split View feature. The Alt + Click shortcut to create vertical split pages works perfectly and greatly improves my multitasking workflow for side-by-side tab comparison. However, there is currently no native keyboard shortcut to cancel / exit Split View and separate tabs without closing either page. To undo split view, users have to rely entirely on mouse operations: right-click tabs or click the divider menu. This breaks keyboard-first browsing efficiency and creates unnecessary extra clicks every time I finish comparing pages.

Feature Request

Please add a dedicated built-in shortcut to quickly separate tabs and close Split View. A simple key like Esc or a custom combination such as Ctrl+Shift+Alt+X or something would be ideal, matching the convenient Alt+Click way to trigger split view.

Frequently finding myself when switching tabs with mouse movement the tabs move out of the group that I am working in. Because I frequently need to have 8+ tabs open at a time for quick file and email access it would be nice to be able to keep tabs where they belong without needing to drag them back in. Its a minor issue but still helps.

I am unable to press new tab or even use Command T to open a new Tab. The New Tab button seems greyed out as if I've hit the limit for tabs, but I don't have too many tabs open. Not even the keyboard shortcut is working which quite surprising. I am able to create new tabs if I open a new window, so I am not completely unable to create new tabs, but i was just curious as to why this might be happening to my current window.

I use tab groups to save work sessions so I can easily close and reopen them when I need them. I typically use the downward arrow to see all of my tab groups, however, when I opened my laptop today, there are only two tab groups there and no "show all" option. When I opened my laptop today, I did see that Firefox had been closed unexpectedly and the restore sessions option, which I used. The two tab groups I had open when I left my laptop opened again when I used restore sessions, but now those are the only two tab groups I seem to have. How can I get back all of my other tab groups?
