I am using version `91.5.0esr` of firefox on kali linux (debian). I recently clicked an option that I do not remember. What it does is to put a cursor on the line that I am reading. I do not like it because it is annoying. I want to restore to my default settings

You may have switched on caret browsing. You can toggle caret browsing off/on by pressing F7 (Mac: fn + F7).

  • Settings -> General: Browsing
    remove checkmark: [ ] "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages"

Note that this is a Firefox accessibility feature.
