New tabs are opening in different locations
New Firefox is making me angry everytime I use it. New tabs are doing what they want, they never open near the site that i'm watching. Sometimes they open in the middle of other tabs, sometimes at the end. That is so problematic and frustrating that i would download an opera if i can't change it. I use about 90 tabs and that's the way I'm using Internet, I won't change it. I have searched in settings but there is nothing. Old mozilla haven't done this. Can someone help me?

You can make new tabs opened by clicking the New Tab button (Ctrl+T) appear next to the active tab by changing browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent to true in about:config.
If this doesn't work, try disabling your extensions.
Ok, but I mean this tabs that I open from site, that i'm watching, not clear new sites. For example I use 40 tabs, I'm watching tab nr 30 and from this tab I want to open something but as new tab, and it opens as 41, not 31. And then I must scroll 10 tabs to see what I have opened and when I close it... I don't see the site that i just watched but site nr 40... It makes no sense... so stupid. I hope i had written it cleary (i'm not perfect in English ;) )
You can set both these prefs to true to open links in a new tab next to the currently selected tab where you clicked the link.
- browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent => true
- browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent => true
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. On the warning page, click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.
Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?
