At some point, it switched to the other behaviour for me and has been that way for quite a while. I would prefer it to focus the Firefox window, but instead I just get a notification about Firefox opening a tab. Except, now I just tested it on this laptop and it does switch to Firefox right away, so I have no idea what the difference is, other than maybe this laptop is a recent install, unlike the others. One could also set firefox's window (or the other target app) to be always on top or to be in another focus mode, handled by the window manager - at least when being in mode "multi-click", that might help. Mate users can do that easily, devilspie may help as well. Regards, -- wwp https://useplaintext.email/
