The New Firefox Redesign

Meet the fresh, new Firefox! Our latest redesign gives you a new, wide-open window to the internet with more privacy than ever before.

Please restore Compact mode and remove awful mobile mode. This is desktop browser, guys.

Changes, simply for the sake of changes.
No improved functionality, to the interface, Just changes.
Did you import your entire staff, from
That's the kind of BS, they throw at us.

Stop redesigning the software interface based on your belief that you think you know our individual workflow. I want things where I've become accustomed to finding them.
The only thing I want is better performance and more security. Leave the GUI up to the user.

Desktop applications should not use UI tailored for touchscreens. I dont think i've ever been closer to uninstalling firefox. Used it almost exclusively for over a decade.

[shafi]

Wow you guys just made it shittier. So much wasted space. I prefer the compact design

[gamextraordinaire]

How do i go back the old way before this please ? Video if possible Thank You.

[tohk]

We want old UI back. Nobody asked for this.
STOP CHANGING UI FOR NO REASON

[mine-bxif]

oh god how do I go back to the old one this one's awful

This firefox 89.0 looks terrible, loads of unnecessary white space and my tabs have somehow shrank so there is only a small amount of letters displayed as tab titles.hope there is a fix for this or some way to revert to the previous version.Im also hearing this HTTPS over dns is a high security risk and its enabled by default.

Guys, looks like you do everything to:
1) make your audience even small than it is now
2) be chrome-like

new design sux

[tjyuekp]

why tabs are so small in new design? they definitely should occupy 25% of the window

[Frej]

All these round edges and so much wasted space. I feel like I am using Windows Vista. I assume this was designed for Mac users going by the video, and how it feels to use in Windows 10. The dark theme has some odd color choices as well, if you browse through settings. The cyan color doesn't match it at all.

Edit: Firefox is becoming more and more irritating to use, even as a non-power user. Vivaldi feels more like old Firefox than the current direction. Everything is hidden away in about:config, but the settings are overwritten at certain updates, so one has to spend a lot of time in about:config. With Vivaldi I don't have any such issues, because they provide the user with lots of options in the settings.

How did you manage to decrease the tabs readability, small icons for sound, the current tab isn't readable at all. You need to consider that not anyone has a 4k high contrast monitor. Also the tabs are bigger, maybe you considered touch support though just give us customization options. I already thinking into switching to brave.

[wizardsuth]

I prefer tabs that look like tabs, not buttons.

[ozzieggg]

Chrome is getting disliked lately so lets make flrefox bad too so chrome doesn't lose too many users.

Gotta work for that google funding amirite

[randybobandy]

The new design takes up too much space at the top of the screen.

[JokerSaintsRow]

*I do not like how the tabs section takes up 5% of the screen.*

[elitemook]

Dear designers. If I wanted my PC web browser to look and function like a phone / tablet I would just use a damn phone / tablet.

[ssstudent]

you have ruined my day. you have 3 days before i'm switching to chrome

[hauslerful]

I recently switched to FF and I think the design is great. Only thing I changed was that I switched to the compact layout. I guess if you don't come in with a lot of muscle memory, it's much less annoying than what a lot of commenters seem to feel about this.
