Details

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/14693.

The following call from an extension background script will open a new tab next to existing tabs and switch to it, instead of keeping the currently active tab in focus.

browser.tabs.create({
  url: "https://example.org",
  active: false
})

The active property works as expected in Fennec.
