How do you do? Sir, I am facing an issue in the new version of firefox for Android.

In the new version while browsing a website, when I press the home button and load another website, the new website opens in a new tab instead of opening on the current tab.

So is there a way to solve this? I wish the home button would load home page on the current tab instead of opening in a new tab. If I need a new tab then I could just open it on my own. I don't need the home button to open a new tab.

Thank you.
