I actually love the tab design, which is odd, because I hate anything new. What I did NOT like is the vertical spacing, which stank of the superfluous header bars from the late 90s/early 2000s. I applied a browser CSS change to fix it, and now I think it's great. /* * remove dead space in browser tabs bar * * Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/nq6kto/if_you_dont_like_the_new_design_you_can_disable_it/ */ :root { --tab-min-height: 30px !important; } :root #tabbrowser-tabs { --tab-min-height: 30px !important; }

thanks I hate that the browser is taking that much space. browser purpose is to serve content, not to be in the way of content.

I also am in this camp, and used the "compact" UI theme previously. With editing the- about:config I have the new tab theme, and the compact UI once again. And if anyone is also trying this route - change `browser.uidensity` to 1 will restore the compact theme.

  This indeed looks much better. Unfortunately this will be removed starting FF90, according to the reddit link above.

    Oh, well looks like I'll need to delve into editing the browser's .css now to adjust it to my liking.

I'm in agreement with you here. I do like the design, just loathe the excessive useless margins. It's a web browser, not a web site. I don't know why everything needs massive margins/padding nowadays. I like condensed. Anyway looked a lot worse in screenshots, with my system theme and tweaks I am actually liking how it looks. What I don't like very much is the new shield icon inside the address bar, looks more like a weird hexagon than a shield, but that's rather minor.
