On my old computer I had the option to show the Firefox home button in the upper left of my screen, but I don't see a way to opt for than now. I really like that feature and use it all the time. Is it still an available option in the new version of Firefox ?

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).

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.

Hello, apparently with the newest update to Firefox, they decided to change locations for elements like the sidebar and extension icons and the forward and back arrows. Is there any way to change these back to their previous locations (e.g., forward/back arrows on left side of search bar)? Also, I appear to be missing the icons for refreshing a page and opening a downloaded document. Where can I find these and how do I add them back to my header bars? I didn't find anything under the Settings menu.

Any help appreciated, as these apparently tiny changes are driving me crazy. I especially miss the refresh and open download buttons.

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm autistic and I find the new design updates really, really disturbing and I need to change it back to the old design.

I read on the help article for reverting to older versions that it'd be better to ask if there's a workaround instead of downgrading because of the security issues, so yeah does anyone know how to revert to the previous Firefox design and maintain the current version of the browser?

By the new design, I mean the roundness of everything and the teardrop shapes for whatever's left.

I'm still gonna revert back for now but hopefully there's a fix I can use.

I just updated to Firefox Version 157.0 and set up vertical tabs on the left side and love it. I also have "Hide tabs and sidebar" clicked which I assumed would hike the sidebar until I moved my cursor to the left. That doesn't happen. The icons for the various tabs remain displayed. Am I wrong to assume that this setting means the sidebar will be hidden until the cursor is moved to this area?

Thanks for your input.

I cannot seem to revert the changes done to the Firefox User Interface completely. I have set browser.nova.enabled to false, which reverted some changes, but the address bar and the bar of which the websites are (which I do not know the technical name of) are still "squished". Is there a way to fix this? Thank you for your time, -Sargent Venipede

The new, awkwardly rounded tabs are just awful, and on top of that, you can’t change them anymore. Please bring back the old MINIMALISTIC and STRAIGHTFORWARD look of the tabs, I’m begging you. I used Firefox only because of its minimalist style. Why are they forcing this incomprehensible THING on me without the option to choose the visual style myself?(((
