How do I recover the normal additional toolbar in firefox that shows options for maps, images, videos etc. This toolbar is no longer shown on firefox - perhaps it's because firefox has recently been updated and no longer gives that facility?

New Tab UI Text Colors

I recently updated my Firefox to v158 from v156, and now the text colors of some of the UI elements on a new tab (e.g. Firefox wordmark, web shortcuts, Recent Activity header) which were previously white, have been changed to black (or a color close to black).

I use a custom wallpaper for new tabs, which didn't alter these particular colors on v156. Switching the background in the Customize menu shows the white text on some of the default wallpapers and the dark text on others. I have attached example screenshots to show how these elements looked before and after the update. I used the Developer Tools console to do this.

I assume this has to do with the "modernized" Nova UI redesign (which I have disabled) Mozilla is now forcing on its userbase instead of making it optional. Reverting these properties via the Developer Tools console does not make them permanent. I would rather not have to change my current wallpaper if I can help it.

Is there any other way I can make the text white again without changing the background or downgrading? Or if I can make them permanent with the console?

With the new FF 157.0.1 (64-bit) it seems the download icon in the toolbar is now purple. I want this back to the old colour but have no idea how to do this. Why was this changed, because the colour hurts my eyes.

BTW .. using FF on Windows 11 (25H2)

Tab Aesthetic choices?

Hi there, I was wondering if we could get a setting to change the aesthetics of the tabs in our browser. Currently, we have a 'button'-type highlight for our current tab, but I was hoping we could manage our themes or preferences to actually have the tab visually 'connect' to the browser page itself.

It would help a lot with visibility, and I would greatly appreciate either the suggestion as an option or giving theme creators the option to tinker with the shape of tabs as a whole.

The new update changed the Dark Mode Theme to include a color gradient on the tab row. This is quite distracting an I would like to know how to revert back to the plain, non color gradient Dark Mode Theme prior to the update.

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?
