Firefox Desktop at least lets you know if you've aready got a given URL open.

Chrome does not.

(My "Close tabs" post-it on my desk lamp is dated April 15. 2017.)

Chrome actually does have that feature, but maybe it differs a bit from how Firefox implements it. It gives you a "switch to this tab" option in the omnibox if your input matches the title or URL of an open tab.

It certainly doesn't do that on Mobile.

I abandoned Chrome/desktop years ago.
