Hmm… Dropdown menus for bookmarks in a folder in the Bookmarks Toolbar are not dark – did they forget that? 🤔
They're dark on mine.

Tabs look awful. How on earth do you grab the window if the tabs stretch right across?
There's a free area next to the traffic light buttons, although I highly recommend Swish and then never bothering to grab a window again.
 
This looks fantastic. The comparatively clunky UI was my biggest beef with Firefox on desktop before (which was somewhat manageable with themes and extensions), but this is so much easier on the eyes. Love the new tabs especially.
 
The menus were always customisable - in terms of buttons displayed I don’t see what’s changed.

The tabs though - they don’t look like tabs anymore, they look like buttons. That no longer gives them the feel of owning all the UI elements below them which are tab specific (address bar, back/forward buttons, content, etc). I don’t like it, it breaks the metaphor consistency (mind you so does Safari’s stupid placement of the address bar above the tabs).

Can we just stop messing with the UI or at least let us have the option to keep things the way they are now?
The way the tabs look at the top looks really bad. Should take that back to the drawing board.

This is how I feel about Safari in Big Sur. The most obvious thing about FF and Safari's diverging opinons is where the + for new tab should be.
At least FF has it next to your existing tabs, like how safari used to.

Really dislike the extra vertical space everything consumes. On wide screen monitors every vertical pixel is at a premium, don't use them without a really good reason.
I agree. It’s horrible, and is clearly taking a queue from Big Sur. Just awful.

I am using it since the very beginning, before that I used the original Mozilla Suite and Netscape Navigator in the 90s. Hope for many years to come!
 
Firefox has become a memory hog full of memory leaks ever since they attempted bottle up caches/cookies.

Will this fix that? Cause not being able to see tabs where the tab is seems like basic functionality. Do they even use their own product?
