Tab groups have become one of Firefox’s most loved ways to stay organized — over 18 million people have used the feature since it launched earlier this year. Since then, we’ve been listening closely to feedback from the Mozilla Connect community to make this long-awaited feature even more helpful.

I can't remember when I last heard any unwanted sound from a homepage. I guess you have a problem with your settings.

And a LOT of people asked for better tab management. That's why they made it. Want names, or are you just annoyed that a lot of people wanted something you didn't? Here's a tip - you don't have to use the tab groups!

Some websites that present cookie banners or other modal dialogs like to piggy-back starting an audible video to the click that dismisses the dialog. Most videos get ad-blocked anyway, so this rarely bothers me, but last week one news article with accompanying (non-ad) video hit me with sudden audio.

You greatly overestimate the capabilities of Firefox's average user.
