Steps to reproduce:

  1. visit a website like YouTube on Firefox Linux(like Ubuntu)
  2. click the go back one page button
    or right click > go back one page button
    or ALT + Left Arrow Key

Actual results:

the focus of the current site immediately sends you to nearly the bottom of the site

for example on YouTube the focus sends you far below the video to suggestions/or the comment section
It happens on most websites -

Expected results:

the focus of the current site shouldn't be affected and stay the same,
before the site is unloaded and the previous website is loaded
