Yeah, which is why I stick with it even though they just butchered a few areas of the UI (most notably the home screen). Fortunately they seem to be listening to reviews and fixing things.
Yeah, I don't understand why Mozilla thought this latest release was ready for production.
Does anyone know if there is a way in the new Firefox for Android to stop it from keeping my tabs open when I close the window without using "Quit"?
Yes, there's an option in Settings to close open tabs on quit.
Thank you for trying to help, but I think you missed a part of the question.
Ah, you're right. No, there isn't an option to do this without explicitly Quitting. I find it a glaring omission myself, along with the fact that deleting Browsing History and Site Data are combined into a single option.
There is now an option to close tabs I think. After a time period like a day or a week. It's in beta
