The fact that firefox updates when I open it instead of when I close it. Has to be the most annoying feature ever. (lemy.lol)

I mean like why? Just open and update when I'm done that's what every other browser does. Stop making me wait to use the Internet firefox!

Would installing Firefox on winget solve OPs problem, assuming they are on Windows?

Not likely. Windows doesn’t like modifying open files, so the installer would probably request you close Firefox. Linux will happily change the in-use files underneath the browser, Firefox notices and prompts you to restart the browser when you open a new tab.
