From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Not sure if it’s helpful, but you know there’s an option for that right? Settings -> Homepage

Thanks, but I'm pretty sure it's bugged. I've had FF open, receive a call, go back to FF, see the homepage instead of the last tab.

Other than that, a few of your issues sound like memory issues, so hopefully they can slim the browser down a bit to improve things for you.

I really need to get a new phone, 2gb of RAM is not enough, but I'm having a really hard time finding a pixel in my country.

But your last item reminded me of this bug

I think that's for tab selection. I forgot to list that as well, I've got 100+ tabs open and it occasionally jumps to showing the first instead of the last one.

What I meant is: you read an article, and when you're halfway through you close FF. When you open it, it might continue from where you left off, or it might show you the top of the page.
