Tabs from some sites duplicate when clicked in FF 151.0.3 (64-bit)

This is true particularly with ChatGPT and Claude, but has happened on other tabs in the past couple of days. When I am on a different tab, and I click on a "problem" tab to view that content- it duplicates the tab instantly. If I click on "x" to close it, it duplicates again. I can close with Ctrl-W. It seems like certain tabs are "magic" tabs, because sometimes I can click the "x" to close a duplicate tab without issue. But when I go back to the original problem tab- the behavior persists. I don't really want to purge the cache for these sites, but I will if I have to. I had installed a new extension (TamperMonkey) a few weeks ago, but everything seemed fine until a couple days ago. I disabled that extension yesterday, but the problem persists. This problem existed before the latest Firefox update. I went to check the previous version number before posting (I update frequently) and it updated today.

Thank you for your help!

Opening new tabs

When I open a new tab in a browser it goes to background by default. Is there a setting to have the tab open in the foreground?

This was working just fine up until 2 days ago. As the title says, when I close firefox, it is now no longer restoring my tabs from my previous session. Closing via the x does not give me the option to restore my previous session.

I have:

Tried unchecking the box, closing firefox, opening it again and rechecking the box. No success.

Uninstalled firefox, restarted my computer, and reinstalled firefox. Still no success.

I am open to further suggestions.

Before the update, I could use "cmd+shift+[number]" to open a new container tab. Now, nothing works. "cmd+t" opens a tab with "no container", which is completely different.

I already tried going to "about:keyboard", but opening a new container tab isn't even listed as an option.

Hi Everyone! I am having some trouble figuring out how to get rid of these "phantom" windows. They appear after I do a sign-in to my Google or Facebook account and it opens in a new window. The windows stay open in the background, or at least my Macbook shows them as windows as if they are still open. Whenever I click on them they just go to my most recently opened tab on Firefox and never actually allow me to click on them or see the tab. I've tried looking for them in the "open tabs" section on Firefox, and it doesn't show them there either. I added a photo to show that the "phantom" window is separate from my currently open browser on Firefox.

If anyone knows how to get rid of these, I would so appreciate your help! Thanks!!!

Empty tabs (about:newtab) are removed from tab groups when the groups are saved and closed. Bug or feature?

Not sure if it's a feature or a bug, but I noticed that if I 'save and close' a tab group containing an 'empty' tab, i.e. the about:newtab page, the tab does not get restored when the group is opened again. Before I was using tab groups, I often used these empty tabs as a crude method of separating bunches of tabs from each other. I have some large tab groups, open on the tab bar, that still contain these, as I have never closed them since they were created. (They're just collapsed.) I was planning on closing them sometime, after I'd next reviewed their contents, but now I'm not too keen on that! So, just wondering, is this empty tab deletion a bug or a feature? If the latter, what's the rationale?

Where is the option to close the current tab when editing the URL in the navigation bar?

This behaviour change happend a while ago and has just now bothered me enough to write up a bug about it.

If I have a tab open, navigation bar at the top, I edit the text of the bar and change it to a different URL and hit enter. The current tab I am on is put in the background and a new tab opens for the website I went to. I now have infinite tabs open because they used to close naturally and my back button worked normally and now I have just weird tabs.

Also there is no rhyme or reason to the order of my tabs, they used to be chronological, but now I edit a URL and it might take me to the tab from a month ago with it open and then every tab after that is in the middle of a hundred tabs from a month ago.

I wish that you would properly complete the changelog for android updates as well as this change in behaviour has taken me from someone who has manageable 10 tabs to a chaotic million that I never close, but won't enable automatic closing of old tabs (which I think was added when this change happened) because I have legitimate tabs open that I want to not be closed. It is just a real suck fest to get to them now since I have so many stupid ones from just editing the URL.


TL;DR I want to have android Firefox work like every other browser on the planet when I edit the URL I want to navigate away from the page. When I search I want to navigate away from the page. You took that away and the browser has been worse because of that.

Warning About Losing Tab Groups When Erasing History?

I realized today that my tab groups were all gone and I believe it is because I erased all of my search history about a week ago. Unfortunately I did not realize that clearing my search history would irrecoverably delete my tab groups, and I think it would not be intuitive for many other people either.

Ideally I would like to see a specific option to keep or erase tab groups when clearing search history but in the absence of that I think at least having a warning that you will lose your tab groups if you follow through would be very nice.
