How to stop the adress bar from getting bigger while on focus in Firefox 75?
It's just darn annoying, especially when you also need to trim off these spacers to the left and right of the bar since a few versions. Just stop it.

Hello firefox611,
This is a temporary fix (so I'm told), but I am optimistically hoping that they will come to their senses …..
Would you do this please :
Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter. (ignore the warning)
Type in the search bar and look for the preference :
browser.urlbar.openViewOnFocus
and set its value to false
Do the same with these preferences :
browser.urlbar.update1
browser.urlbar.update1.interventions
browser.urlbar.update1.searchTips
Then close and restart Firefox.
(if it's only the Top Sites suggestions that you want to get rid of : setting the value of first preference to "false" will do that)

I'd really like to call this a bug.
