I better do not update my mothers iPhone then. She is already getting confused with 367382828282 tabs being open and not knowing how to close them. Now she will not even understand how to go ON a website 😅
Got a tip for us?
Let us know

With the difference that Firefox doesn't actively make the tab bar barely stand out by blending it into the background and that it's not moving crucial interface elements (the adress bar) around as it pleases.
Seriously, this might look good, but this is terrible from an useability point of view. The trend of design over clarity which started with Big Sur continues.
Moved to Brave Browser this morning, few hours before WWDC.
This visual change makes me happier that i did.
Even though I usually love visual refreshes, this one dosent sit right with me

I like having my work tabs open on the mac, while my personal tabs open on my phone. If this means that all gets merged together it's actually rather inconvenient
Because clearly Apple couldn't have working on this for a while instead just scrambling to put this together during this last week after Mozilla redid their browser.
My first reaction to blending the tab and address bar UI into the web page is that Apple has introduced a new set of usability problems. This will look great on idealized websites and either bad and/or will be abused intentionally by others. There is a good reason to set expectations that application UI is separated from content UI. They have different functions.
I could be wrong. I haven’t used it yet. I’ve just seen this pattern repeat at Apple over the years where they flatten or remove UI which introduces usability problems, only to re-introduce it later.

Finally, a convenient way to organise my work and leisure tabs!
But at the expense of even less space to just grab the window

Or we could just go back to not having 9 inch iPhones.
The new tabs interface looks interesting but it's something I'll have to try before I know for sure.

To be fair Firefox's redesign was not discovered only a few weeks ago: that's when it was released to the general public. Nightly/Beta users had the ability to test it long before.
The Firefox redesign initiative started months ago and it was public knowledge: I think the new tabs were implemented 6 months ago or so.
I’d be happier if they added even just a few modern web APIs!
Still will be the least compatible browser on the web but hey, at least it has a confusing UI.
Please please no more disappearing controls in iOS. Screens keeps getting bigger and bigger, we can live with a few mm of controls on the screen so we don’t always have to tap to unhide what used to be there at the ready.
😥
I was looking for this, too. It amazes me that they have not rolled this out even though they've been talking about it "coming" for years.
The only thing that makes sense as to why they've not done this yet is that all of the apps that have apps just because they want to send push notifications would bail, including all of the news apps, which they make a bunch of money on.
Does AdGuard not do this on MacOS? I'm using it on PC and iOS and it works great.
