I'll start: Opening new tabs all the way to the right or bottom, rather than next to the current tab. Its especially disorienting on vertical tabs, I lose track of which (I changed the setting but its still annoying on blank Firefox profiles).

I have no issues with ctrl Q. But for some reason cmd Q I hit all the time on accident on Macs.

Cmd+Q is the universal Exit command in Mac! Hopefully you add a prompt on exit to prevent losing your work.

Well I just a mac mostly as well and it's not an issue... But yeah as the other guy stated turn on the prompt.

If you search up "closing" in settings there is a section that allows you to enable it.
