When reading Wikipedia pages such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_model_(set_theory), symbols like "∈" are rendered in a font that looks ugly. I thought this was a problem with my Xiaomi phone, but I just found out that my system browser renders the page correctly.

I want to upload screenshots but the page seems to be stuck with the prompt "Uploading "1000003213.jpg"...", so I am going to submit this first and try to add the screenshots later.

Firefox on Android - is there equivalent of "open bookmarked site on new tab"?

Existing Firefox Desktop user with Mozilla account (which lets me sync bookmarks across several Desktop devices.) New Firefox Android (version 143.0.2) user, logged in with Mozilla account, Desktop bookmarks are accessible now on the Android Firefox installation.

Problem: I'd like keep the folder in which my bookmarks (synced from Desktop --- the folder shows up on Android Firefox as Bookmarks > Desktop Bookmarks > Bookmarks Toolbar > (a set of folders I have on Desktop firefox containing my bookmarks) open after launching a web site from a bookmark stored there.

Observation: Currently after launching a web site from bookmark stored in the above folder, the navigation I made to reach my bookmark folder of choice is no longer open, so I need to repeat the navigation process from the start to get to my bookmark folder (that was synced from Firefox Desktop.)

Alternately: I'd like copy selected bookmarks from my (large) library of bookmarks (synced from Firefox Desktop) onto the home page of Android Firefox but do not see how to do this (I can edit the bookmark where it currently resides on the Android Firefox installation, but I don't see how to make a duplicate copy on the Android Firefox home page listing (and I don't want to delete the existing bookmark(s) on the Android Firefox installation.)

Happy to provide any clarification requested or answer any questions about this request!

Thank you.

No matter what search engine is used, if I click a link or any other buttons (like clicking cast when searching a movie) from the results, it opens the results in a new tab. If I return to the tab with the search results, it creates a new tab and it will do this indefinetly. 1 simple search results in 4+ tabs being made. This is only an issue on mobile and has been an issue for several months. Last week, it resolved itself for 1 search results, then went back to creating a ton of tabs.

I have reset site permissions, deleted site data, enabled "open links in tabs instead of new windows", disabled "shortcut: click and hold link for 1 second".
