I'll be blunt...: the new Nova interface is impractical, uncomfortable to use, and I find it genuinely hard to stomach. On a touchscreen, hitting the right tab has become a struggle. With a mouse it is no better — there are now dead grey zones where a click simply does nothing at all. This is not a matter of taste. This is a measurable usability regression, and it shipped to everyone by default. I am not alone in this. The same complaints are all over the forum, and my own students were furious when their terminals updated and everything suddenly turned round. These are people who use this browser for work every single day. For them the update brought nothing but lost time. We like Firefox. We want to keep using it. That is exactly why this is so infuriating: a browser we chose for its control and configurability is now imposing a design decision on us with no way out.

If nothing changes, we will solve it ourselves — with a patch that suppresses update notifications and adds a "Manual update" option to the settings, so that people have a CHOICE and can keep working in the good old rectangular Firefox UI instead of having someone's "brilliant" idea forced on them. I would much rather you simply gave us that choice yourselves.

Please restore a usable, compact, rectangular tab style as a supported option, and fix the dead click zones.

Respectfully, A concerned user

The browser color changed. It appears to have changed after a Windows 11 Update. Now the top part is a light lavender color except that on the right side it gradually changes to a slight orange tint. The bar on the left is also a light lavender color. As I recall the borders were a gray color before. Why did the colors change and how can I get the color back that I want?

Thanks

Hello,

You may notice Firefox Settings looks a little different. As part of the refreshed Firefox design, the Settings menu has been reorganized to make it easier to find and understand your options, including how you manage your data.

Your bookmarks, passwords, settings, and browsing data remain unchanged, and no action is needed on your part.

If you don’t see the updated Settings, go to Settings → About Firefox to check that you’re using the latest version of Firefox.

i  hate  the fact that   apps and companies just  make changes and do not ask  their customers   i like it   when  it first began .  i do realo ize you need to  change but   ask first tas ke a poll to see who wants and who does not

To be clear, I am talking about the gaps between UI elements that were present in early mockups as well as in initial versions of Nova before it was enabled by default in 157. I understand they were a controversial design element with many users disliking them for a variety of reasons (preferences, space utilization, ...) but in my view they were really one of the things that made Nova click and I was disappointed when they were axed before the final release.

My question is whether the Firefox team has made a final decision to remove them permanently and completely, or if there is ongoing discussion/work around reintroducing them, perhaps as something that can be enabled or disabled depending on each individual user's preference?

One of my shortcuts has no picture. The instructions for a custom picture ask for an URL. I have a picture on my file, but no url. What can I do? I have already asked this question before but have not got an answer yet.

I'm new to Firefox. I have everything set to light mode, which I am new to as well. When I open a new tab, the search bar at the top of the page is white like I want it; however, the search bar in the middle of the page is black no matter what I try to do. Any way to fix this? Both bars are set to the same search engine... I have a custom theme set but when I switch it to one of the default themes, the search bar is still black.

Is there a theme or some other way to restore the classic styling instead of having these pills everywhere? This UX doesn't even make sense...tabs used to connect to the page content they were displaying, now it's just some disconnected oval; I have trouble seeing which tab is selected now because it's all various shades of grey that are about half a bit of luminosity away from each other...looking for suggestions on the best way to restore some sanity to this UI...

With the most recent update, the autofill password background color is now white instead of black, as it had been forever, with my system settings on Dark Mode / system.

I cant see any place to change the autofill background color, other than follow system settings or set to dark mode. Which I have done both, restarted firefox and my PC - still showing white background. again, this just started with a recent firefox update, about a week or so ago, maybe there is a glitch in there?

Please advise. Thank you~ SG

I have only one question: Who asked you to change my browser theme with the recent patch, the one that had been set for years without changing? Why can't I roll back to the previous version? Where is that damn squared theme that existed before this attempt to decide what's best for the user?

I'm not sure what combination of keys I accidentally pressed but now the font in my menus (main, contextual, sidebar, bookmarks, etc.) is so tiny. How can I fix this?

How can I reverse the recent visual update without going back to an older version of Firefox? I'll go back if I have to, but if it's not necessary, that would be nice.

The current version is styled with oval/circular shapes. I would like to keep the box-like shapes from before this update.

The new Nova update has caused websites with bright blues to change to purple such as Amazon, USPS, Bluesky, and Nord VPN. I have tried disabling Nova in settings or changing themes but this does not help here are some image examples https://imgur.com/a/WRUAoiR

I'm not sure what version it changed, but I am now on 157.0 and on vertical tabs the container tab color indicator used to be on the side and now it extends the length of the tab horizontally which I find extremely off-putting.

Is there a way to revert this change? Can it be modified with a theme perhaps?

Any help would be appreciated!

I can't see very well and I have trouble reading my tab names with the new update, Firefox 157.0. Is there any way to make the font size in Firefox itself larger? I can find settings to make font bigger on webpages, but not the interface itself.

If there is no option, where do I request it? Thank you.

Update: Windows 10 ease of access settings (Settings>Ease of Access>Make Text Bigger + Make Everything Bigger) do technically do it, but boosting the text everywhere causes problems on a lot of websites. I literally just want to do the tab names. thanks
