Return the menu to original or give the option. T menu deactivates many addons, makes some inaccessible and useless. The new look and even less customization possibilitys than before, makes everything only more troublesome instead of easier. I have no use for firefox like this.

Once upon a time Mozilla Firefox was a great little browser..No clanging bells and whistle and sirens that pestered one about all the great wonderful features, each one a must have. Page after page of 'look at all the meat things we added." And maybe, justcmaybe, we could get around to what we wanted to do and look up the next showtime. A simple Blue smiley button that also said "New!" somewhere up top, perhaps a little bigger than the others and blinking/winking😎every now oand then would do. When did Mozilla decide it was all about Mozilla, and not about the customer, and tell us so every update. You know, like Micro squash does?😒 ry now🙃

The latest Firefox release (141) on Android introduced a couple of new features marked as "progressive rollout", e.g. the ability to protect private tabs via PIN, while the release also brought regular updates, e.g. security fixes.

Does someone know how a progressive rollout of such a feature works technically for the userbase? How can a release be rolled out, but some of its features be kept back while other changes apply to all?

For example, the ability to set a PIN for private tabs is a local user preference configuration. The user may or may not have a user sync profile. How is it possible to rollout the feature progressively on the same release channel? Or does the progressive rollout imply the first group of users receive the feature with consecutive minor releases, e.g. release 141.1, the next group with 141.2, etc?
