Well, no, the address bar is one of Firefox’s best UX features. Thank god it’s not just a simple form element, it’s much more useful now. Before it was something like the Windows run dialog text box but now it’s more similar to my zsh prompt with aliases for searching and fuzzy history recall etc.
- owlmirror 5y agoI see the benefits for these features, but do not see why the bar had to become that obtrusive in appearance and behavior for them. But for me these features are useless at best and a distraction in practice, I don't want suggestions from my browser, at all, I want to think for my self. I use the url bar simply for entering addresses, or for copying and editing them. I completely disabled my history and what I want to remember I keep as bookmarks. When I want so search something I use the search box.
