I haven't played around with it yet, but it looks neat

This small but mighty update includes some exciting new features and improvements to Zen, such as passkey support for MacOS, and a media player controller that's fully integrated with Picture-in-Picture mode.

I like Zen, but recently everytime I open a new window it opens up a weird, blank window as well.

You can disable the state-less empty tab if you set zen.urlbar.replace-newtab on disabled in about:config

Found in release notes 1.8b:

Added support for a state-less empty tab (only enabled if 'zen.urlbar.replace-newtab' is enabled)

Thanks for this, but that setting was already disabled, unfortunately. This feels more like a bug than a deliberate result of a chosen setting.

It changes very fast, I've been going through a cycle of

  • months with no issues
  • a week of dealing with a very annoying issue

They changed the new tab / split tabs feature recently and I think it broke some things

Randomly my thumb browsing changed from back/forward to swapping the workspace.

I’m about done with this browser tbh.
