raspberry pi open search in new tab does not work even after "Open links in tabs instead of new windows" is checked and "browser.search.openintab" is set to true

I have a Raspberry Pi 4b with a 64bit 4 core Arm CPU and 8GB ram. It is currently using Debian Trixie with the Xfce4 desktop.

I installed Firefox, and went through the setup. I made sure that in settings -> general the "Open links in tabs instead of new windows" is checked. I also set the about:config "browser.search.openintab" is set to true. My default search engine is DuckDuckGo.

Firefox will not open any search in a new tab. It opens them in the search results tab only. I have an x86-64 notebook and an x86-64 desktop running Xubuntu that are using the same settings, and they function properly.

Am I missing something? Is this a peculiarity to the arm version of Firefox? Is there another setting specific the Raspberry Pi or arm Firefox that I have to change?

Cheers!

This is the most annoying behavior. For the most time I would like to use panel once or twice a day to ask some question to continue on conversation in some chat but whenever I close the AI chat-bot panel it resets its context and throws me onto the default page of the provider of my choosing. I have to click my way into the proper chat every time. Could a chat-bot panel keep its context or keep it session at the place where I left it?

firefox on windows 11, keeps blocking my camera and Microphone despite express permissions to allow, i look in permissions and the site is clearly marked to allow camera, but when i goto sitye, no camera or mic is allowed until i delete the permission that is supposed to allow it.

I have counselling at https://survivorswestyorkshire.whereby.com/chrissy

I allow my camera and mic.

I return to the site and it tells me camera and microphone blocked.

I goto0 settings>Permissions>Camera

It clearly states that the website is allowed to use the devices, but when on the website the devbices are blocked. Whats messed up is, if i delete your settings>Permissions>Camera, it allows me to use my camera and mic, until i refresh the webpage and its blocked again.

This makes zero sense and is every reason for me not to use Mozille Firefox as a browser at all.

Hello, Today I performed a factory reset on my laptop (Windows 11). Before i did that, I checked if my Firefox account has synced all it's data, bookmarks, history etc. was checked and I pressed "sync" button. Then performed all of the actions connected with factory reset of a windows including partition removal. After that installed Firefox, logged in, but had to reset my password because it wasn't saved within my Bitwarden. Then synced and it turned out, that there is no saved bookmarks on my account. Is there a way to return my bookmarks?

I'm really stumped and confused why this would be, but, I'm unable to sign in to my account on one of my devices, though I can access it from other devices.

I have a work computer and a personal computer. I want to have a profile on my personal computer signed into a an account I share on my work computer so I can easily access tabs and history across my these to devices that's separate from my main firefox account attached to my personal email. Got the profile signed in on my personal computer, went to sign in on my work computer and got a message "unexpected error." I attempted to disable the extensions and clear cache at the advice of one thread I saw from years ago but I really have had a heard time finding anyone with this issue at all.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I didn't know I need to keep a device on if I want to sync my old data. I read it thoroughly. This is annoying, I don't want to lose my Sync data from this because I didn't know. How do you guys retain your Sync data if I were to reset my password? My computer just got fixed and I don't like this greeting of where all my data like history and bookmarks flushed down because I wasn't signed-in in a device nor did I place a key or something.
