I absolutely hate the redesign, having the new tab button in the middle makes no sense, the corner is way easier to tap, having the individual tabs be taller makes them take up more space while looking worse and the tab selector takes up the whole screen, so I can't see the tab I was on.

For context, this is what it was like before:

Settings >> about firefox >> tap the logo 5 times to unlock advanced settings >> go back to settings >> secret settings >> disable Tab Manager Enhancements

Edit: Same steps work in forks like Ironfox

I wasn't looking to revert the tab view, but still, I learned something new today and that matters. Thank you.

You don't happen know how to disable the new "+" button in toolbar that opens new tab?

[โ€“] Sprinks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

Same steps but disable Composable Toolbar.

Edit: It might be a different setting, but its for sure one of the setting options in that secret setting menu

That is amazing. Thanks for the tip! I hated the new tabs design.
