The new X button doesn't close the website
**Describe the bug** So a new close button popup today on the website and it doesn't work, instead of closing the website it redirects the user to the homepage. I know it is not regarding the algorithm but this place seemed appropriated to report a bug issue. **To Reproduce** Steps to reproduce the behavior: 1. Go to https://www.twitter.com 2. Click on top left X button 3. See error **Expected behavior** The tab should close, as good UX teach us. **Environment** Windows Chrome latest version, also Mac OS and iOS 14 Safari.

"Focus follows mouse" is what I use to keep the file manager from popping up when click-dragging files.
The biggest problem with this is if the target URL doesn't load but also doesn't quickly error out, like e.g.
