Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1824581

(Fenix :: Tabs, defect, P3)

Description

[Jeff Boek [:boek]]

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/19231.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open 100+ tabs (might be visible with less as well)
2. Open your newest normal tab
3. Switch to incognito and open a new tab
4. Switch back to the normal tab list

Expected behavior

The tab list scroll position should start from the newest, at the bottom, as previous versions.

Actual behavior

The tab list scroll position starts from the oldest, at the top.
This means i need to scroll a long way down to get to my newest tabs.

This has been bugging me for months. It also happens randomly, switching to incognito isn't a necessary step here.

Seriously considering if I should stop using firefox on mobile...

It affects me too occasionally. As far as prioritizing bug fixes, it's easy to say that security and crashing bugs are high priority, but this is a big usability bug and should follow closely to be fixed.
