If you click on a link with ctrl + left mouse button a new tab is opened and Firefox automatically follows this tab, this is wrong and has changed since the last update. The correct behavior would be: With ctrl + left click on a link -> new tab will open, but Firefox will remain on the old tab.

Firefox has different behaviors depending on how/why a new tab was opened. Could you check these settings:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful or accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste inback and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the following preferences to switch the value from false to true as desired:
- browser.tabs.loadInBackground - when you right-click > Open Link in New Tab, or Ctrl+click, or middle-click a regular link, not pre-targeted to open in a new window (default = true)
- browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground - when a link was coded to launch in a new window and Firefox switched it to a new tab instead, regardless of how you clicked it (default = false) <= I think this is the one you want to change to true
- browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground - when you direct a bookmark to a new tab (e.g., using right-click > Open in New Tab, or Ctrl+click, or middle-click a bookmark) (default = false)
Can you get it working the way you like?
It works, many thanks !!!
