I have increased text size, but the text in web addresses, sidebars and tab labels are tiny (accompanying icons seem fine). Firefox in Win 11 (Brave Browser doesn't exhibit that problem, I assume I changed something during set-up)?

With V160 in FF for Mac Desktop, the toolbar icons are too close together now. Can I get them back to the spacing they were at, globally, or do I need to insert space for each of the 35 icons?

I noticed the New Widgets such as the new Clock or Timer widgets, can be dragged from their spot. But doing so and letting go just SNAPS them back to the BOTTOM of the page, making it feel awkward. Why can't we just drag them to other spots or have then snap to a side or grid so we can NOT have the new tab have to scroll up and down, but be left as a single page?

EVERYTHING on Firefox on my MacBook Air just dramatically shrunk to where I can hardly even read everything. NEVER had this occur before.

Also, DUCK DUCK GO seems to be intruding on my browser and trying to get me to switch browsers!

After upgrading to firefox 160 I noticed something has changed in tab titles. They look broken, especially when hoovering over tab in background (before clicking it to change it). It looks like text has some white glow.

It reminds me of ClearType and OLED issues but I have this on LCD screen and nothing else was changed in system - only firefox was updated and issue instantly appeared.

In FF160 changelog we can find info about "Increased the contrast between the domain name and the rest of the address in the address bar" - I wonder if it also affects tab titles?

OS: Win 10 22H2.

The most frustrating thing about Firefox is the assumption that an update should take liberties with the UI look of the application. After updating to v160 I can no longer see which tab is my active tab, and on top of that, there seems to be no easy way to change this. I have an add-on called "Firefox Color" which seems to give me the ability to change my active tab color, but it does not work. I think I saw the active tab blink red, my chosen color, once, but it does not happen reliably. I also do not have an accent color across the top of the tab either. This is why I hate to update Firefox. Couldn't they offer security updates separate from updates that change the UI look? I have my browser set up a certain way that works quite efficiently and I like the look, so I do not want it to be changed.

All suggestions appreciated.

Thanks, Chris

Hi, I’ve been trying to adjust the appearance of Firefox to suit my eyesight. However, I’m not happy with these settings. WHERE can I revert to the default settings, just as they were after the initial installation?

Thanks Regards, H.W.

I would like to disable the recent update at settingbrowser.nova.enabled. The purple-pink colors and rounded corners are VERY hard for me to see. I need the gray background, black writing, and square corners back. Thank you.

The context menu "learn more about DRM" when clicking right mouse button during a video-stream is overfluent to me (for example when already having many context menu entries from installed useful addons), how can I remove it?

Firefox 153.7.0esr (also affects previous releases) on Linux When I browse websites that have images, and hover to read the title text, Firefox displays the text as white characters on a white background. The only way you can tell that the characters are displayed at all is that sometimes the white character occludes a dark spot in the background or image.

I'd like to change the text colour that Firefox uses to display these title values, so that I can read them.

Attached images:

   title is unreadable until it spills off the image and onto my desktop background

Hello, since the recent update, firefox tabs' font look different. Like blurry, doubled. You see the picture. It was not like that til like some minutes ago before it got updated.

After the last update the tabs are rounded instead of square. Where can I find the option to switch it back? If there isn't one, please add it back as an option in the next update.

I absolutely hate the new chromelike tab and address bar shapes (rounded, smaller). Whole reason I'm here is because I despise chrome. Is there any way to revert them to be larger and rectangular again, either through an add-on or in settings?

The topic that best describes my question is "Appearance", but I don't see that topic in the dropdown. Firefox 159.0.1. I have Firefox adhere to "system colors". The current tab title has a white background, the others blue. With an older version of Firefox, the text in the tab title was black if the background was white. With version 159.0.1, the current tab title uses white text if the background is white, making it unreadable. See images with red arrow pointing to what I'm talking about. The first 2 images show the new Firefox, 159.0.1. The 3rd image shows an older version, that properly adjusted the text color to black, if the tab title area was white.

whrn I open Chrome, everything displayed is in a nice format. When I open Firefox it's doesn't fit right. I've tryed to change it but can't seem to make it right. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.+ Thank you for your cooperation in advance.
