You might need to get your vision checked. Each tab in a container gets a colored top border. And it's sizeable.

Not anymore. Please check again. I don't see the colored top border on container tabs. I'm on FF 91.0.2 on Win 10.

    PEBKAC :) Just found that I had the browser.proton.enabled set to false. Toggling it brought back the border on container tabs. Still don't like the distinction between active tabs and container tabs though.

    I am using the System theme and don't see it. Huh. I don't remember trying any about:config fixes as well recently. Wonder what is different between our versions.

  Huh? I'm on 91.0.2 and the coloured border is still there. If there's a newer version (nightly?) where it's gone, I'd have to agree that's an egregious UI FU.

  Works on both 91.0 and 93.0 (nightly) on my machine. Did you play with userChrome.css and broke it ?
  - animesh 5y ago
    Nope. I don't play with userChrome.css at all. I am just using the System theme. Just found that I had the `browser.proton.enabled` false. Toggling it brought back the border. Wow. I completely forgot about this setting I changed around FF 87 or so.

How do you resize the colored top border?
- wussboy 5y ago
  Yes, I’d love to make the colours big and bold. No more mixing dev and production…
- ohgodplsno 5y ago
  I don't believe this is exposed by default, but playing around with userChrome.css should be able to change it.

  Sizeable means large. It's not the same as being able to resize it.
  - chrisjc 5y ago
    Lol. This is really embarrassing.

Your decision to be a dismissive smartarse really annoyed me, because of course i'm not that much of an idiot. Turns out that like another respondent here, animesh, I had 'browser.proton.enabled' set to false too from an attempt to fix my tabs last time FF buggered around with things. Setting that to TRUE has got the colours on. So, only slightly an idiot...

  When I see anecdotes like this, I better understand why Mozilla is moving away from about:config. A thousand variables makes issues far more difficult to debug.
  - detritus 5y ago
    True, but I'd never have fritzed with the settings in the first place if Mozilla had allowed me to easily keep things as they were / customise things.
