It'd be helpful to have a new tab button next to the address bar on mobile for easy access.

Currently, opening a new tab requires two clicks - one to open the tab window, and another on the "+" button to open the new tab. This also requires interaction with two different parts of the screen that are far apart from each other (top right vs bottom right), which is hard to do one-handed or in a hurry, especially on larger phones.

 

I'm a heavy tab user, and the option to have a "+" button directly next to the address bar would make it easier to open a new tab quickly.

This would be a really nice feature

A really desired feature that could be activated in settings. On a large tablet I use another browser and the only reason I avoid Firefox is the crippled tab management. A tab bar with a plus (add new tab) button would be a much much appreciated feature. This is present in all other major browsers - Opera, Chrome, Vivaldi, DuckDuckGo, Edge, etc.

It's crazy to me that I have to click twice to open a tab, none of the other mobile browsers require this. Please consider adding this feature!
