After FF updated to Quantum my saved tabs now now longer fit on my screen.

1) how do i fix this

2) why would this possibly change during an update when obviously this affects my ability to use the product properly when suddenly tabs are twice the size as before.

hi, you can change the minimal width of tabs like this: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.tabs.tabMinWidth. double-click it and change its value to something lower that fits your needs...

Hi. This has been suggested before but actually does nothing to change the tab size for me.
