Is there a way to disable Handoff on Firefox for macOS?
I need handoff enabled on macOS and iOS in order to copy and paste items from my Mac to iPad using Universal Control (I checked by seeing the cross device clipboard not working when either is turned off). I want handoff disabled in Firefox only, shouldn't there be a way to disable it within Firefox? Seeing Firefox tabs randomly automatically show up in Safari on my iPad is annoying and spam.

Is this related to Sync'ing open tabs? You could turn off tab sync and see whether that makes any difference: How do I choose what information to sync on Firefox?
Or perhaps it is something MacOS+iOS specific (I can't replicate that myself).
Oh, you're the guy that made this [[session history scrounger|https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html]]! it's helped me out a lot. Anyway, unfortunately that didn't work, I still this handoff icon when I turn off tab syncing in preferences, when I have Firefox open on my Mac, and Safari open on iOS.
Hmm, based on some searching, it seems to communicate through iCloud, which probably means Firefox is just telling MacOS what it has open. I don't know whether there is any way to turn it off from within Firefox or block Firefox from within iCloud settings.
Either way, I think you are supposed to click or tap something to initiate the handoff, so if that doesn't seem to be required, you could file a new bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
