Question Firefox 131.0 released

Release notes: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/131.0/releasenotes/

New:

Firefox will now offer to temporarily remember when users grant permissions to sites (e.g. geolocation). Temporary permissions will be removed either after one hour or when the tab is closed.

A tab preview is now displayed when hovering the mouse over background tabs, making it easier to locate the desired tab without needing to switch tabs.

When suggesting a default translation language, Firefox will now take into consideration languages you have previously used for translations.

We’ve re-introduced the ability to navigate to the search engine home page when the search bar is empty by using shift-enter/shift-click.

Thank you! I like the tab previews when there are a lot of tabs open, makes it easier to find stuff.

They are pretty handy. They can also be turned off in Settings - General - Tabs and untick "Show an image preview when you hover on a tab".
