It sounds like you're experiencing a bug where the bottom bar widget to show all tabs in Firefox disappears after watching a few YouTube videos, especially when multiple tabs are in use. This can be frustrating, particularly if you rely on the tab switcher for easy navigation.

Here are a few suggestions to troubleshoot this issue:

1. Clear Cache and Cookies: Sometimes clearing the cache and cookies for Firefox can resolve UI-related glitches. Go to Firefox settings > Clear cache and cookies for the app.

2. Disable Add-ons/Extensions: If you're using any browser extensions or add-ons, try disabling them temporarily to see if they're causing the issue.

3. Restart Firefox: Close and reopen Firefox to reset the session, and see if the bottom bar reappears.

4. Check for Updates: Ensure that both Firefox and your Android OS are up to date. Sometimes these issues are resolved in newer versions.

5. Try in Safe Mode: Firefox has a safe mode that disables extensions and restores default settings. If the problem doesn’t occur in safe mode, it might be related to an add-on or custom setting.

6. Submit a Bug Report: If the issue persists after trying these steps, you might want to submit a bug report directly to Mozilla. They can investigate further, especially if it's a recurring issue on Android 14.

Hopefully, one of these steps will resolve the problem!
