Often I google and rightclick open in new tab a dozen (or more) tabs.
Then, in Windows 10, I have to manually click the top of each tab.
If I don't want that particular page, I can control+G to kill it.

That uses the mouse to go to the next tab & the keyboard to kill it.
But how can I skip to the next tab using just a keyboard sequence?

Scroll to "Windows & Tabs"

There are so many key shortcuts in Firefox, that you'll unlikely
remember them all, or even half of them. Save the above URL, or save
the web page into a local reference doc file for when you want to check
if there is a key combo for what you want to do.

Me too, although usually 5 or fewer.

Usually I click on the X or if it's not the tab with focus, right click
on the tab itself, the tab's tab, and Close Tab, but I might like Ctrl-G
better. I'll try it. (even though it's a search shortcut on a couple
programs I use. Will that confuse me?)

Ctrl-tab. Works in many programs

Shift-ctrl-tab Goes backwards.

You will lose an important disk file.
