How can I bring back the old behavior of the Search Bar where search results are opened in the current tab?

more options

Up until recently if you had the discrete Search Bar turned on and used it to do a search, the results were displayed in the currently open tab, overwriting the previous contents of it.

At least since v78 (but maybe even since earlier) this changed. Now if you do a search like that, Firefox opens a new tab and jumps to it.

For me, the original behavior is what I got used to, and that is the desired one because I want to avoid tab clutter. How can I bring it back?

I don't think that it's a default behaviour. Enter about:config in the URL bar and set browser.search.openintab = false.

Thank you @TyDraniu, that fixed it! I didn't even have to restart the browser. For Waterfox G3.0.2 (based on Gecko 78.6.0) "true" seems to be the default value.

I'm sure they've changed several other things as well...
