Close Synced Tabs feature doesn't work on ESR versions?

Hi!

Very satisfied new Firefox user here :)

I've just noticed that from my Windows 11 Firefox 132's Account menu, I can close tabs open on my other computers via the sync feature. However, the X button that lets me close the tabs only seem to appear next to tabs open on my other computers that also run Firefox 132, while my computers that run the 128 ESR version don't show the X button next to their open tabs.

Is this because the close synced tabs feature was implemented after version 128, or is it blocked for some reason due to the nature of the ESR version? Or am I just doing something wrong with the sync settings on my ESR versions?

I've tried searching the help section and looking up the release notes to try to figure it out, but all attempts failed to find the reason and a fix :(

Thanks!
