I find it incredibly disruptive every time this page comes up and it's never completely capable of restoring my tabs. Is there any way to disable it so that it will instead update when I choose to restart Firefox?

You can enable saving the tabs when closing Firefox. I use Firefox like this since a decade or so. Open Settings > General > Startup and check option "Open previous windows and tabs" (its the first top most option on that page).
You can also open the Menu > History > "Recently Closed Windows" and probably open the last window this way? I don't know if this works after an update. But in the History menu could also be an option "Restore Previous Session", when a session is available (maybe after an update??).
Honestly, I don't know why Firefox does not ask to reload tabs, after restart of an update. I think it's an oversight.
It is on and has been for years but I still lose all my tabs regularly.
Is it because of Sync? Container Tabs? I don't know
If I'm not too mad next time, I will try to find out why I lose them but my instinct is to reopen right away the tabs that I need the most.
