Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:77.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/77.0

Steps to reproduce:

I open a new tab in the background by clicking a link.

Actual results:

On serveral websites (but not always) firefox jumps to this tab as soon as it is loaded completely.
This happens in tabs of the wordpress backend but also on several websites. A good example is this website: https://de.freepik.com/home

Expected results:

The browser shouldn't change the tab by itself.
I've tested it with all other famous browsers. No one has this behavior.
The error is new. It did not occur in older versions.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

I can't seem to reproduce this bug. Are you able to reproduce it in Firefox Nightly?

Sorry for the late answer. I was checking and testing.
I've testet it in firefox's save mode without any addons, but the issue didn't disappear. Then I did a complete deinstallation incl. all belonging files and a celan install of FF. Now the issue is gone.
