I never found a solution, switch to Brave. Still use Firefox on desktop
Are you implying your tabs don't refresh with Brave?
Yes. If I'm away long enough they might, but I've just switched back to Brave after about an hour away, and no refresh. Whereas Firefox would refresh every time I switched app, which made it unusable for me. E.g. enter username on a webpage, switch to password manager to copy password, switch back and Firefox reloads the page. Infuriating
Yes yes I have exactly the same problem. Super annoying!
It's a shame because I really want to use Firefox. I'm sure this is partly aggressive memory management on Android, and maybe especially on MIUI (do you have a Xiaomi by any chance?) But none of the Chrome derivatives have this issue (Brave, Vivaldi, Privacy Browser all work fine for me)
Yeah got a Redmi Note 10 Pro. Brave and Chrome are fine indeed.
