I-Firefox Community Forum

Hello. I really dislike the new appearance of firefox, from the rounded buttons/tabs to the color scheme being everywhere. Is there a way to revert to the previous appearance, or customize these things?

thank you in advance!

So that I don't uninstall it right away, I need instructions on how to disable this extremely ugly color scheme and design. Does Firefox want to lose its last remaining users to Chrome, too?

Why would something like this be changed without my consent? That's probably the biggest insult I've ever experienced.

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.

I hate the purple color on the buttons. How do I change it? I am not impressed with Firefox's appearance changes. I don't want to spend hours exploring themes and extensions and add-ons. I just want to change the color on the buttons. I just want black, white, and shades of gray.

I don't want rounded corners or two tone windows.

I wanted flat black and blocks like I had it. If i wanted a different appearance I would of set a different appearance.

I've use Firefox for almost 15 years. This will be the end.

Revert this update or I'm uninstalling :)

Using a different browser for now.

This is horsesh** and it looks like crap. To force it down the necks of your customers is a choice I guess.

Today my Firefox browser upgraded to an "improved" look, but I hate it. The little square containers that used to be unobtrusive are now huge and visually distracting balloons, meanwhile it's harder to tell where the tab borders are or what tab I'm on. And the faded color in the top bar make it hard to read the text to the left even though I picked the darkest option, but I don't want to install themes by random makers. I just want to go back to how it was, it was fine that way, you don't have to constantly change things just for the sake of changing them.

Subject: Feedback: Please Show Full URLs by Default and Disable “Show Search Terms in Address Bar” by Default

Hello Mozilla Firefox Team,

I would like to suggest two changes to Firefox’s default address bar behavior that would improve transparency, usability, and user trust.

1. Show Full URL Addresses by Default

  Currently, Firefox hides parts of the URL such as “https://” and sometimes simplifies the displayed address. I believe Firefox should display the complete URL at all times by default, including:

• Protocol (`https://`)
• Full subdomains (`www`, `m`, etc.)
• Complete path when relevant

Displaying the full address helps users:

• Better verify website authenticity
• Detect phishing or deceptive domains more easily
• Understand exactly where they are navigating
• Maintain consistency with technical and professional workflows

2. Disable “Show Search Terms in the Address Bar on Results Pages” by Default

  The feature that replaces the actual search engine URL with the search query text can be confusing and reduces transparency. Many users expect the address bar to show the real URL of the page they are visiting.

I recommend disabling this feature by default because:

• It hides useful navigational information
• It makes copying/searching URLs less predictable
• It can create ambiguity about the actual site/page being viewed
• Advanced and privacy-conscious users generally prefer seeing the real URL

Users who prefer the simplified search-term display could still enable it manually in settings.

Firefox has traditionally been a browser focused on user control, openness, and transparency. These changes would align well with those principles.

Thank you for your work on Firefox and for considering this feedback.

I cannot see my left side vertical list of my bookmarks (including 'other bookmarks'. Can you tell me how to access this list every time I open Firefox on my desktop and other sites?

Greetings. Been trying to enlarge the font size in the bars (title, menu, and tab) at top of Firefox. Have read many similiar complaints, but the answers don't relate to the problem. I can't find some of the options some suggest. I'm not blind (yet), but the type is so miniscule, I have difficulty reading it. I've uploaded a photo and a screenshot to hopefully clarify the problem. Check the difference in the bars compared to the page. I don't want 14 pt. type on the bars, but something better than the miniscule type. Thank you for any relevant assistance or advice.

What do I need to do to disable, hide, or eliminate the horizontal scroll bar? One is displayed when I open spreadsheets using Google Sheets, which ends up blocking information that is normally seen.

I'm on Windows 11 and have the current Firefox installed.

Thank you.
