How do i get FF to open a bookmark in a new tab, without having to create a new tab first? Its an annoying extra step

When I click on a bookmark, FF opens it in the current tab, overwriting the site I had open. I have to add a tab, then click on the bookmark to have it in a new tab. This is an annoying extra step. How to I change it? I already tried the open links in new tabs instead of windows. Makes no difference On or Off

Support Firefox to be able to use different tab view modes on different windows! For example, two Firefox windows on different monitors, in my situation below:

- One on a 1920*1080 hori screen, with vertical tab sidebar disabled - One on a 1080*1920 vert screen, with vertical tab sidebar enabled for this window only in this case.

It brings much more convenience, at least for situations just like mine :)

I run FF on a Windows desktop. I have 5 pinned tabs and one tab group. Today when I opened FF all of these had disappeared. This has happened before, so I have a screenshot of the 5 tabs and can restore those, but I didn't make one of the tab group (given that the whole point of it was to SAVE the tabs), and unfortunately those were the result of a lot of time spent researching.

Is there something I can to do make sure these tabs all actually get saved from one session to the next? This unreliability of FF wastes a lot of time and starts me thinking about going back to Chrome which at least has the virtue of more stability. What is the point of all these features (I was really happy when you created the tab groups) if I can't rely on them?

hallo zusammen wo finde ich in firefox eine funktion, die mir die zuletzt angesehen und geöffneten tabs wieder herstellt?😐

in den einstellungen ist "Vorherige Fenster und tabs öffnen" angehakt.

es kommt aber wiederholt nach updates dazu, dass die letzten fenster und tabs nicht wieder geöffnet werden, sondern nur 1 tab mit der festgelegten startseite.🤷‍♂

muss ich mich damit abfinden, dass die letzten tabs hin und wieder im nirwana verschwinden? oder gibt es auch dafür einen tipp für laien?🙏

When I middle-click a link in Firefox, it opens in a new tab, but it also switches me to that new tab immediately.

I’d prefer to stay on the current tab after middle-clicking, and just have the new tab open in the background just like google chrome does. Is there a setting to stop it from automatically switching?

Thanks!

Firefox recently started "eating" my tabs: closing them without my permission. There are several tabs I want to keep open at all times, because I refer to them from time to time throughout the day, but Firefox closes them from time to time. I googled the issue and the AI directed me to two settings: browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory and browser.tabs.min_inactive_duration_before_unload. It suggested setting the first one to "false" and increasing the duration of the second, or setting it to "false." However, the setting will only accept numeric values.

Since I am not having low memory issues, I want Firefox to leave my tabs alone. Is there any way to actually do this? If not, it would be really nice if Firefox developers reversed this intrusive change.

Thank you, Terry
