Hi, 

I am not a fan of Firefox Quantum's new theme. Is there a way I go back to the original one? Thanks!

This probably is the best known example of custom style rules to bring back Australis-style tabs:

I have a website which describes more about userChrome.css files: https://www.userchrome.org/

There's no convenient, built-in way to switch from the new "Photon" interface design to the "Australis" (Firefox 29-56) interface design.

Some inventive users have posted custom style rules to curve the tabs and make various other changes. Is that the main thing you would like to change, the shape of tabs, or are there other things that are a high(er) priority?

ok, i just upgraded from a pre 57 firefox and while i should say i like the idea os userChrome.css, i will need a lot of time to tweak all my preferences, so, maybe on a near future... for now i will go with waterfox.
