They made simple workflows more complicated, removed features and move UI elements around for no apparent reason.
Weirdest thing is how they moved the address bar to the bottom of the screen. You can put it back to the top of the screen but it's like - why?
There was a useful list of most frequently visited sites on the homepage, which they've decided to remove.
Opening a new tab or a favourite now requires at least two taps (one on top of the screen, and the second at the bottom), or one long press, while it required only one tap before.
With their experience in software development, Mozilla should now that users mostly hate changes, although we can be fine with it when there are improvements too. But in this case, there's no improvements as far as I could see, just random changes to the UI, a few things worse, a few things different for no reason, but nothing better.
Overall it gives very little confidence in what they're doing. It seems there's no leadership or overall vision at Mozilla, just random teams making random changes just for fun.

As someone with a larger phone, this has made things 100x easier. Previously, the address bar was out of reach with one hand. Personally, I'm really happy with all of the changes.
