How do I revert the update that was forced onto my that changed the window where I view tabs of different pages? It has completely changed and it's frustrating and I do not understand it. I wanted to go back to the style it was. I am not very versed in technology and changes like this make things unusable for me.

Is there any way to select 'none' for the toolbar shortcut in Firefox Android? phone screens are narrow enough as it is.

In the latest Firefox for android UI change (dear god, why) there appears to be a new toolbar shortcut. Is it possible to turn this shortcut off, so that the top toolbar only shows |address bar|all tabs|settings|, rather than |address bar|shortcut|all tabs|settings|

Ideally, Id like to go back to the old UI, but I have a feeling that that's not happening.

Hello everyone,

While testing some fan-made game community websites, I noticed that Firefox handles them a bit differently compared to Chrome or Edge. For example, I checked https://nullsbrawl.tech/ (not an official site, just a community project) and saw that it loads more slowly and sometimes behaves differently in Firefox.

This made me curious:

Does Firefox have different handling for script-heavy or unofficial community websites?

What tools in Firefox Developer Tools would you recommend for debugging performance issues?

Are there guidelines for developers to make such sites more compatible with Firefox?

I’d love to understand more about how Firefox manages these situations.

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. The tabs list places the tabs extremely high up. 2. When using a single toolbar, please add an option to have no "shortcut" in the toolbar. Seeing what site I'm on becomes harder and harder every update, with random new things being added or the padding of existing items being expanded. 3. When using a single toolbar, opening the triple dot menu means I need to stretch my hand all the way to the top of the screen to open it, then all the way to the bottom of the screen to interact with the menu that it opens. This is absurd.

After much searching and guesswork, I've finally worked out that the "cross in a box" icon on the Firefox android search bar is to allow qr codes to be scanned. Maybe you could add a tool-tip for these more obscure icons?

Why do you keep making Firefox more and more impractical?

Where did background playback go? I can’t even use the phone with one hand, and suddenly I can’t fit more than six tabs in there? What are you doing with this browser? I have Firefox on Android set as an unrestricted app, yet it started closing my tabs anyway. What are you doing with this browser?
