I'm a longtime Firefox user, but I only found out about compact mode from the discussion on HN when it was first announced it would be removed. I've been using it since and really like it. Can't help wondering whether many more people would be using it if they knew about it.

- freeAgent 6y agoGiven that many screens these days are either 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratio, it makes sense to try and minimize the amount of vertical space/rows of pixels used up by the user interface. Screens these days have much more horizontal space to spare than vertical space. Compact mode increases the amount of content that can be displayed on the screen. I like that.
