Sidebar switcher allows users to access Bookmarks, History and Synced Tabs panels easily, quickly switch between them, move the sidebar to another side of the browser window, or close the sidebar.

It is now possible to copy any file from your operating system and paste it into Firefox.

You asked, and we listened! The volume slider is now available in Picture-in-Picture.

The keyboard shortcut to reopen closed tabs (command + shift + t) now reopens last closed tab or last closed window, in the order items were closed.

Copy pasting files directly seems to be a big improvement

What’s the use case for this? I’m drawing a blank

I think its for attachment in webmail, or when you need to upload a file to certain websites (One Drive / Google Drive, etc.)

If you weren't using a file picker, you could only drag-and-drop files into Firefox. For keyboard warriors, that was a bit of a faff. I'm assuming if Firefox only sees one file input, it'll paste the file in there on Ctrl+V. Interested to know how it handles the potential for multiple file inputs though.
