Is there a theme or some other way to restore the classic styling instead of having these pills everywhere? This UX doesn't even make sense...tabs used to connect to the page content they were displaying, now it's just some disconnected oval; I have trouble seeing which tab is selected now because it's all various shades of grey that are about half a bit of luminosity away from each other...looking for suggestions on the best way to restore some sanity to this UI...

So I just updated to the newest version of Firefox today as of 10-5-26. Except that the purple new tab screen and header for private browsing windows that I really quite liked is not only gone, but the color that's replaced such is nearly black, making it not only much harder to see anything, but overall far worse to look at. Even worse, it doesn't change from such hardly at all regardless of theme, preventing me from correcting it.

I've attached a copy of the previous version of the new tab screen for private browsing that I managed to find for reference purposes, although such doesn't have the header included.

I would also like to take the time say that I've used Firefox for more than a decade, and I think because I haven't had an issue that's been remotely this bad to warrant creating an account to report such says something about how well Firefox has been working for me.

How can I reverse the recent visual update without going back to an older version of Firefox? I'll go back if I have to, but if it's not necessary, that would be nice.

The current version is styled with oval/circular shapes. I would like to keep the box-like shapes from before this update.

The new Nova update has caused websites with bright blues to change to purple such as Amazon, USPS, Bluesky, and Nord VPN. I have tried disabling Nova in settings or changing themes but this does not help here are some image examples https://imgur.com/a/WRUAoiR

I mostly like the UI changes. However, I have a persistent bug where there is an unremovable blue alert icon on the sidebar/history button. Aside from removing this button from the UI completely, is there any way to dismiss this alert?

Second question: while in the sidebar, I navigated from History to Bookmarks. I no longer have the ability to change the sidebar away from Bookmarks. How do I get History back?

I hate the purple color on the buttons. How do I change it? I am not impressed with Firefox's appearance changes. I don't want to spend hours exploring themes and extensions and add-ons. I just want to change the color on the buttons. I just want black, white, and shades of gray.

Hello. I really dislike the new appearance of firefox, from the rounded buttons/tabs to the color scheme being everywhere. Is there a way to revert to the previous appearance, or customize these things?

thank you in advance!

157.0 made bookmarks sparce again. How to restore high density? Old methods dont help.

This doesnt help: "With the release of Firefox 157 and its new "Nova" visual design refresh, Mozilla actually brought back Compact Mode as a fully supported native setting. You no longer need to mess with hidden about:config flags or the "Customize Toolbar" menu. To fix the sparse padding and restore high-density spacing for your bookmarks and toolbars, follow these steps: 1. Click the Menu button (three horizontal lines) in the top-right corner of Firefox. 2. Select Settings. 3. Choose Appearance from the left-hand sidebar menu. 4. Locate the Window density section. 5. Select Compact."

I really don't like the purple used in the settings pages. I changed my overall theme to Proton-which I like, however, it didn't make any changes to the purple and I really don't like the other themes. Some users may like the purple-I don't. There needs to be a way just to change the purple to something more pleasing.

Thanks

Today my Firefox browser upgraded to an "improved" look, but I hate it. The little square containers that used to be unobtrusive are now huge and visually distracting balloons, meanwhile it's harder to tell where the tab borders are or what tab I'm on. And the faded color in the top bar make it hard to read the text to the left even though I picked the darkest option, but I don't want to install themes by random makers. I just want to go back to how it was, it was fine that way, you don't have to constantly change things just for the sake of changing them.

So that I don't uninstall it right away, I need instructions on how to disable this extremely ugly color scheme and design. Does Firefox want to lose its last remaining users to Chrome, too?

Why would something like this be changed without my consent? That's probably the biggest insult I've ever experienced.

Po ostatniej aktualizacji, karty na górnej belce mają zaokrąglone brzegi. Irytuje mnie taki widok i nie podoba mi się, chciałbym przywrócić poprzedni widok kart, z prostokątnymi brzegami. Wgranie motywu "Proton" nie pomogło, zmieniła się tylko kolorystyka
