Android 151.0b1 Update lost all my tabs, DO NOT UPDATE

version 151.0b1
org.mozilla.firefox_beta

This version completely nuked all the tabs I had open on Android. Even sync doesn’t show any of them. Not in history.

The appalling quality control over the last few years is enough. I will be terminating my recurring donations to Mozilla, not like they reached Firefox anyway (going to the “CEO” instead).

This was the last straw.

It was a good run. Goodbye.

If you have feedback on Firefox for Android, I suggest heading over to connect.mozilla.org, our feedback platform.

Please appreciate that as you mentioned, you were using the Beta version of Firefox for Android. This is not the finished product and may occasionally have unresolved issues contributors are working to fix.

Deleting tabs is never an acceptable situation. This should be caught during automated QC and tests. If tests can’t catch this, then it’s a fundamental engineering issue that must be fixed.

Beta isn’t an excuse for dropping the ball this hard.

I am not suggesting this is acceptable, but I am suggesting that you raise this feedback in a place where it is more likely to be picked up.

I did, yes, thanks for the heads-up!
