macOS Monterey Handoff function causes icons to constanty move in the dock on one of two Macs I have side by side when using Firefox. Very distracting but I need Handoff.

This topic has come up before. Firefox Sync means that if you do something on one Mac whilst using Firefox, and you have another Mac on a monitor next to your first Mac, anytime you do anything in Firefox on one Mac, a second Firefox icon appears in the other computer's dock. And it moves constantly. Very annoying.

If you try and hide the dock, nope, it reappears.

The "solution" is to turn off Handoff in macOS system settings, but that takes away a lot of functionality I need.

Is there an internal fix within Firefox settings to stop this constant new icon to move all the time?

Thanks!
