On my bar of browsers, the dropdown arrow disappeared recently....
I don't know what topic decribes it best... however, recently I noticed the dropdown arrow vanished. And now my tab groups are closed and I can't access them.

I can see the tab groups by right clicking an active tab, but can't bring them up.

The icon now looks like a tab magnifier: support.mozilla.org/questions/1615643

Oh.... Really? Ugh. I see it now. My goodness. Thank you so much for answering quickly. Now I'm not sitting here, scratching my head in frustration cause I felt like I was seeing things. lol
Yeeaaah… so I've had it for a while already on preview channels, and still hesitate whenever using muscle memory to aim in the corner and… pausing for a bit each time not seeing the expected chevron there;)
I reckon it was replaced a) as more functionality is crammed into the menu, b) for clashing with some OSes also having a similar chevron right next to it for "minimize" affordance, so it was changed to not cause confusion… but still, the original was pretty spot on — personally not fan of the chromisms;)
Lol! chevron. Honestly, same. My brain had been so wired to that particular shape and it's a bit pleasing for a browser. The magnifier looks deceiving, like it's not what I would associate when it comes to grabbing a group tap or something. Hell, I would accept it slightly if they combined it with the library. At least that's aesthetically pleasing. In a way.
Yeah, I'm not a fan either. I'm here to escape chromisms!
