I hope it’s just a joke
For the love of Odin can I please get a title and menu bar.
When you have tabs across the screen where would you click and hold to drag the window?
I didn’t know people actually liked title bars eating up a window’s vertical space.
Firefox specifically adds a bit of padding either side of said tabs in non-maximised windows.- Open the page “about:config” in your address bar.
- Search for “browser.tabs.inTitlebar”.
- Set it to “0”.
No, I’ll install a better designed browser instead.
Then why are you asking for a separate titlebar?
That’s a different user. I wonder what browser they will switch to which does have title bars enabled by default.
Old Firefox looked perfectly fine. I don’t know why they keep wasting so many resources on changing something that already worked.
Golly I can’t wait.
But could they get rid of the spy shit first?
I’m thoroughly convinced UI designers are under the impression we cut ourselves on sharp corners.
I just updated my Jetbrains Rider IDE and holy border radius batman.
in a few years they will suddenly forget it and it will be all sharp corners again
Bring back more drop shadows and skeuomorphism
As much as I loved firefox in the early days - i find it so slow compared to just about all the chrominum based offshoots ive tried. And UX wise - its just confusing to see things change constantly.
I’ve never really understood the whole obsession with browser speed…
I mean so what if one browser loads a page in 10 seconds and this one takes 11 seconds. There’s no real difference.
There is way too much white-space in this design. I’m tired of getting higher resolution displays only to lose that resolution to applications that get chunkier.
It looks fine, I guess…? Then again, I thought the old design was fine as it was…
I hope vertical tabs will get hidden in fullscreen mode this annoys me a lot now
Again?
the old one is fine
i don’t think the ui is your main problem, mozilla, but ok i guess.
Well, their main problem is attention. And we are looking at a news article right now.
You’re right. It’s too few AI chatbots!
I really hate the trend of people just randomly changing UI in apps for no apparent reason. It’s just a pervasive problem at this point.
😡
I like this a lot! However I hope they keep the userChrome function because as nice as it is I’m going to keep my LibAdwaita skin anyways.
I don’t like gaps, included rounded corners. Let me use all my screen space dammit
Ultimately I just need Firefox to always support about:config, manifest v2 compatibility, and userChrome.css and userContent.css.
That said, usually changes like these break my extremely minimal redesign and configs I have on my desktop. So… boo, Mozilla, boo…
Ultimately I just need Firefox to always support about:config, manifest v2 compatibility, and userChrome.css and userContent.css.
Isn’t userchrome.cc already deprecated for quite some time?
It’d be news to me, I’ve used the same userChrome.css and userContent.css for years now and I keep my Gentoo Linux desktop up to date with weekly updates, so the Firefox I’m using is confirmed to be the latest version.
Additionally, a quick search on ddg reveals no recent mentions nor plans for deprecation of the feature as far as I can tell.
I found this Reddit discussion
The timeline fits (pre-covid), but I got the word wrong. I thought userchrome would’ve been killed of by now.
userContent.css is absolutely essential for me. I use that to limit the size of images on Thunderbird.
The mobile client and fork I use both have that design language now. It’s a little cutesy for me and I dislike having to click twice to get the full menu but otherwise no complaints.
dislike having to click twice
Settings –> customize -> toolbar layout -> expanded
