I still miss Firefox's "View Image" context menu option. There is no suitable replacement. No, I do not want to open the image in a new tab. No, I do not want to use some janky extension that re-implements it but places the option at the very bottom of the context menu.
What did "View Image" do? I only know "Open Image in new Tab"
Exactly that, minus opening it in a new tab. It opened in the same tab (and maybe new tab if you middle-clicked the menu item? I don't quite remember).
Left clicking on "View Image" would open it in the current tab, Middle clicking on it would open it in a new tab. I used both options regularly.

Opened the image in the same tab so you could go back. It was just more convenient, especially when you already had a ton of tabs open.

I understand. That's for sure more convenient. I really miss one feature of Safari: When something triggers a new Tab open and you do swipe right to go back in history, it actually closes the new opened tab. That's in generally very convenient

I don't use telemetry in the hopes that they'll see that only X% of users use telemetry and that they thus remove telemetry as a feature.
Not working well so far.

To be fair, it's hard to see how many users are not using telemetry when they're not using telemetry.
I keep telemetry enabled in Firefox in the hope that they see that I use all of the features that they later remove anyway. It seems like nobody is using metrics to prove that it's not safe to remove a feature. Or they say "oh, it's only 1% of users using that feature", not realizing how much 1% really is.
