Thanks for the report [:eclaudiu64]. For vezionline.net, the urls are different - http://... and https://... but maybe they should both not be in the history. For meteoromania.ro, we cannot reproduce this (https only mode turned on/off). Are there any other websites where you've encountered this issue?

Setting qe verify flag.

In the HistoryDelegate onVisited searchfox code, the http:// version of the vezionline.net link is properly marked as REDIRECT_TEMPORARY, while the https:// is a LINK visitType. Somewhere, we are still storing it in history.

Hm, I can no longer reproduce this on the emulator I was using.
Does this still happen to you? Can you check with the latest nightly?

I was not able to reproduce this either.
Tested on the latest Fenix Nightly 129.0a1 from 7/4, and on Beta 128.0b9, with Google Pixel 6 (Android 15), and Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (Android 9).
Tested on several pages, without inserting the "https://" first (i.e. theverge.com, theguardian.com, stirileprotv.ro, etc).

I'll leave this ticket opened for Claudiu to test on his device as well, but remove the qe-verify+ label.

I tested again on the latest version, Beta, Nightly and I can reproduce this error. All versions are with a new installation and after entering in the address bar: meteoromania.ro and after this error can occur.

Claudiu, thank you for the reply.
I am still unable to reproduce this. Could you attach a short video with the issue?
Also, what device are you using?

New profile installation, can reproduce on all accessed sites. The "Recently Visited" section, on the home page, duplicates the site with http and https, when accessing the site once. But I see that there is no duplication in the "History" section, but when I first posted this error I could also see it in "History", but I think it can somehow be reproduced in "History".

And at the moment I use the phone models: Moto G82, Moto E7 Plus and a Samsung Galaxy A20E.

Thank you!

I can confirm that in the "Recently visited" section both the http://, and the https:// versions of the page are displayed.
Even when I typed https://meteoromania.ro, I still get 2 entries in the "Recently visited" section.
However, when typing https://www.meteoromania.ro I only have 1 entry in the "Recently visited" section.
Tested with Google Pixel 6 (Android 15), on Firefox for Android 128.0, Beta 128.0b9, and Nightly 129.0a1 from 7/4.

On the History part, I'm not seeing 2 entries neither, so I'll update the title of the bug.
