Subject: "Refresh" How can I turn off the 'refresh function' when I am signed onto a session? I understand 'refresh' should work when I log off and later log back on. BUT, I find it VERY ANNOYING when 'refresh' (going back up to the 'very latest whatever') happens when I have merely stopped for a minute or so to completely read an article, or watch a short video. When that happens I cannot get 'back' to where I was because of all the 'new' stuff, even after 10 or more minutes of scrolling down as fast as I can. 

 When the 'refresh' happens and I am no longer able to 'find my place', I log out and turn the computer off for several hours up to several days (which is probably better for me anyway).  Your sandbox, your rules, but there are other sandboxes I can play in, and will.

You mentioned that Firefox automatically refreshes the page when you step away for a short time — and you can’t return to the same spot. Could you clarify in which context this happens?

Does it happen on a specific website (like a news feed, forum, etc.) or in all tabs?

Which operating system and Firefox version are you using (for example, Windows 7, Firefox 115)?

Do you have any extensions installed that might refresh tabs automatically (like Auto Reload or similar)?

Things you could try in the meantime:

Temporarily disable suspicious extensions and check if the problem persists.

If the refresh is built into the site itself, you might try using “Pin Tab” or restoring your place through History after a refresh.
