Change Mute Button in Tabs or Change Max Tab Size

The recent update changed how the mute button works in Firefox, before it would replace the icon and would show text and whatnot if it was muted or wanted to autoplay; now it just always shows the mute/unmute button in a tab playing audio. This would normally be fine but it is causing my tabs to constantly be shrinking and expanding whenever the audio changes in a tab, and it's really frustrating me and it feels like an overall far worse user interface design than it was before, even if people were complaining about it. Is there some sort of middle ground where I can set a maximum tab size or something? I know this used to be a feature in about:config but it doesn't exist anymore for some reason. I've also tried using a userChrome CSS code for it that I found online; it got rid of the button but it still made the tab size change and the code I tried using for maximum tab size also didn't affect that. Really starting to frustrate me! Please give me any advice I feel like I've exhausted all my options lol

I had a bunch of tabs open (apparently in Window 2). One of the tabs had some page I wanted to close. I hit the x and all the tabs disappeared. I went to view recent browsing and the tabs are there in Window2. But when I click on window 2, they don't go back up to the top. If i click on the up arrow they go away, but come back when i click same (now down) arrow again. I want them back up on the top to use. WHERE do new windows come from. EXPLAIN this to me.

Where is "Just go to about:config and switch browser.tabs.groups.enabled to false"? All I can find is that response when searching for a way to turn off tab grouping in Firefox.

That tab grouping "feature" really is too much like modern software developers' tendency to roll out a new "feature" and turn it on automatically no matter how annoying some users may find it. Some times when a mouse cursor goes too far and wanders into that tab zone, Firefox starts grouping tabs. Please allow us to turn the thing off.

Before the update, I could use "cmd+shift+[number]" to open a new container tab. Now, nothing works. "cmd+t" opens a tab with "no container", which is completely different.

I already tried going to "about:keyboard", but opening a new container tab isn't even listed as an option.

my top bar comes up with dozens of internet pages trying to load when I open any internet page. Have not made any changes to anything. Pita to delete a dozen items trying to load every time I open Firefox. How do I turn that off? Tried looking for way to do that for hours and found nothing.

After the last update, the app does not keep the tabs I had open before I closed it, despite the fact that I have had this setting enabled in the settings for as many years as I have been using the browser. Don’t ruin the programs when you update them. You drive away the people who support you because you create disruption.

Issue: Rapidly scrolling up or down often creates an unintended blank space (margin) at the top or bottom of the tab list.

Symptom: When this gap appears, the mouse cursor's focus becomes misaligned with the actual tab selection point by the height of that gap.

Behavior: Scrolling back toward the gap usually forces it to disappear, which also restores the correct alignment between the cursor and the selection point.

Reproducibility: The exact trigger is inconsistent. While it happens most often during fast scrolling, it sometimes occurs during slow scrolls as well. The frequency is unpredictable—sometimes occurring every time, and other times once in five attempts.
