What happened?

When switching between workspaces, the browser automatically switches to the last active tab. This behavior is unexpected when I'm on a pinned tab, as I would expect the focus to remain on the pinned tab, not the last tab.

unpinning Tabs solves the issue but defeats the purpose of pinning Tabs 😢
