That's because you don't use tabs the same way. It's broken in that you can't turn off "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order", it turns itself back on every time you restart the browser. For me, this is a MASSIVE issue, since I generally use a LOT of tabs, and expect to be able to navigate them in a sane order. With that turned on, that's not possible, so I can't actually USE Firefox until they fix it...again. This is the 3rd time they've broken that in ROSA.

Already understand that as youve mentioned it before but I also want readers to understand there isnt a major issue and they can use Firefox in everyday use with few issues.

Depends on what you call a major issue. I'd call that a showstopper issue as it makes it COMPLETELY unusable for everyday tasks.

I actually have posted on their forums about their bug, and opened bug reports. They seem to be uncaring.

Or they dont see it as a major issue in their eyes.

Yeah, could be that. Either way, I'm done with waiting for them to fix it. 3 1/2 months is quite long enough. I'm moving on.
