firefox quantum hs blocky tabs, and a cluttered new tab page. additionally it seems video players are smaller than they used to be, and just a lot of the ui is an eyesore. how do i either change quantum to LOOK like the old firefox, or just get rid of quantum in general, because it isnt any faster and in some cases i find it slower.
