I just tried it. Guess what? The interface is still broken.
You look at the page contents constantly, at tab names often, at the bookmarks toolbar sometimes, at the URL occasionally, and you almost never look at the page title. In 3.6 these are arranged in order radiating from the center.
8.0 completely breaks the flow by sticking the address bar below the tabs. WHY. Also, where's my status bar, with all of my plugin status icons that I use constantly?
4.0+ is still broken, so I'm still going to use 3.6. Simple as that.
- gkoberger 15y agoThere's a difference between "broken" and "not the way I use it / am used to". Mozilla released a video explaining the transition of tabs [1]. Still don't like it? Right click somewhere on the title bar and deselect "Tabs on Top" As for the status bar, just hit "ctrl+/". The best thing about Firefox is that if there's something you don't like, there's probably an add-on for it. Try searching for add-ons that do what you need.

- D_Drake 15y agoWhy would I use 8.0 and spend time and effort turning it back into 3.6, when 3.6 already does everything I want or need it to?
- robin_reala 15y agoBecause it’s multiple times faster and being actively updated.
- aleksi 15y agoAddress bar above tabs? Two clicks to change. Show status bar? Two more clicks.
