I use Mozilla Firefox 92.0. I am looking for a shortcut to open new tab just next to the current tab? By default it opens at last.

• I did not find any thing in about:preferences of Firefox
• I looked at this question; but I think it is wrongly marked as duplicate: This question already has answers
• I also looked at this page; but I could not find any thing there

Note:

I know I can right click on tab title and select new tab. But it needs using mouse. Although it may help if I know how I can select the tab title.

Firefox has a built-in setting (about:config item browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent) to automatically open tabs next to the current tab, but it only works when clicking a link inside the current tab, and will then open that tab next to the current one. But if you click the New button or press Ctrl+T, it will always add the new tab at the end of all the tabs.

To change the the way that New-Tab works, install the add-onOpen Tabs Next to Current.

A non-add-on way is to use the bookmarklet describedhere:

javascript:window.open('about:blank');void(0);

Click the bookmarklet in the Bookmarks Toolbar or assign it a keyword to open a new tab after the current one.
