How the Firefox User Research team crafted our mission statement Firefox illustration by UX designer Gabrielle Lussier Like many people who work at Mozilla, I’m inspired by the organization’s ...
open tabs can take 20+s to load a cached version, when a full refresh takes 1-2s
when you open FF, you spin a wheel for what screen will be shown
limited extension selection
pages are randomly zoomed in
closed tabs reopen after you relaunch FF (I’ve had situations where I’d close the same exact tab 20+ times)
tab sync is janky as hell (doesn’t show all open tabs, sometimes you need to send the same tab 5 times before you get notifications for all of them at the same time)
it sometimes saves your position on the pages, but sometimes not
when you open FF, you spin a wheel for what screen will be shown

Other than that, a few of your issues sound like memory issues, so hopefully they can slim the browser down a bit to improve things for you. But your last item reminded me of this bug

Thanks, but I’m pretty sure it’s bugged. I’ve had FF open, receive a call, go back to FF, see the homepage instead of the last tab.

I think that’s for tab selection. I forgot to list that as well, I’ve got 100+ tabs open and it occasionally jumps to showing the first instead of the last one.
What I meant is: you read an article, and when you’re halfway through you close FF. When you open it, it might continue from where you left off, or it might show you the top of the page.
That’s what I can think off the top of my head.
