Private Browsing doesn't respect themes for window header and new tab page

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.

The new theme is terrible, but after choosing the grey option, it's usable. My problem is it resets for no reason. I don't use Firefox's home page, but that is the only place to change the theme of new Firefox. WHY? I have been a Firefox user since it was called Phoenix, and this recent change might finally break me.. Floorp is looking really good these days.

I've tried troubleshoot mode and the problem remains, I have no idea what I did and I've spent a good hour of research and found nothing to help with my problem, I'm at the end of my witts. The problem is most visible with google docs, but it goes beyond, like these huge lines in the corner of boxes like the one I'm typing in now (see screenshots).

Stop Rebuilding the UI of Firefox

Actually, I believe the aspect of a browser that should not be changed casually is the UI that users interact with while browsing, such as tabs and sidebars. Any changes to configurable UI elements are acceptable, but Firefox should now refrain from altering the UI and instead focus entirely on fixing bugs and optimizing performance. The UI represents the face of a browser, and constantly changing it not only fails to attract new users but also neglects the needs of existing ones.

Blurry text in tabs

Hello,

Ever since the last Firefox update (on October 30th for me), the text on my inactive tabs has been painfully blurry (picture attached). I previously restored Firefox to default and seemed to have pinpointed a certain extension as the culprit, as well as a file within the profile named addonStartup.json.lz4. Deleting both seemed to have done the trick. However, my issue is now back, I can't find the previous file anywhere in the profile, deleting all the files in the profile that were created on the day when the problem reoccured doesn't fix it either. So I'm kind of at a loss. I have tried to set "gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.force_gdi_classic_for_families" to "Arial,Consolas,Courier New,Microsoft Sans Serif,Segoe UI,Tahoma,Trebuchet MS,Verdana" and "gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.force_gdi_classic_max_size" to 15 in about:config ; as this is an old fix I've seen for an older similar problem, to no avail.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Font size of title, menue, etc. depends on screen resolution, very tiny texts with new screen/new laptop

Is it really not possible to adjust the font size? I found no setting for that. I only can cheange the text size of webpages, but not for title or menueor other thing a the top of the firefox window. These are readable with thunderbird, but not with firefox after I changed to a new laptop with higher resolution. Size of elements should be measured in points, mm or inches an not in pixels, as pixel sizes are depending on HW. The attached image shows the comparison between thunderbird and firefox.

since i got windows 11, the scroll bars are so narrow that i can barely see them! i've widened them before in the registry (gasp!) but evidently that's not possible anymore. i'm not sure if it's because of the latest firefox update, windows 11, or google. i've seen references to winaero as a program that might help me do this. will it work? is it safe? thanks!

I just upgraded to version 157.0. It seems to have arbitrarily swapped the positions of the tab strip (now on top) and address bar (now on bottom). How can I switch these back so that the address bar is on top and the tab strip is underneath?
