Note that I have many tabs opened (100).

This has been going on for a year or so. I am annoyed. I might have to use another browser so I don't jump out of the window.

I looked into it some more and would like to add some detail.
By now I can reproduce the issue on a freshly installed Firefox Android 109.1.1 like this:
- open a couple of tabs (internet connection not necessary)
- wait for two weeks (tabs will be moved to "inactive tabs")
- with the "inactive tabs" expanding button at the top of the tab overview open about 10 tabs so that you can scroll
- repeat: open tabs overview and select the tab at the bottom
- after 1-25 times the tab overview will scroll to the top
There seems to be a (timing?) issue with the inactive tabs button hiding before the tabs show up. With the bug the tabs show faster, so the delay the animation is causing is anoying by itself even if it would work properly. There is a related issue about this: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/13293 If I could disable animations maybe it would work properly, but how?
Basically this issue makes archived tabs unusable for me.
This is a typical feature/bug that makes me wonder whether a competing corporate double agent sabotaged Fenix.
