    As a long term Firefox user, I’ve been disappointed with Mozilla’s decisions in the recent years, but this is awesome. This is the kind of features Firefox should be receiving instead of useless UI changes.

      As long as Mozilla remains committed to a free and open internet, I will remain a faithful firefox user.

      Even if every update after this one is a useless UI change. :p

      Are you saying you don’t want a button that looks like a pinned tab that only lets you change between a handful of time-limited themes?

        Im saying I don’t care.

        I open browser search and consume the results. I don’t care for what buttons it has or doesn’t. I’m just happy it’s not Chrome or Edge.

        Firefox android is shit now.

        Removing the tabs bar on android in favour of a stupid button that opens a new overlay with all the open tabs, unable to use most addons and swipe to refresh which activates 99 out of 100 times by accident are the first few that come to mind.

        All three should be a user choice

          You can use a handful of add-ons with default Firefox for Android, otherwise you can use whatever add-ons you want in Firefox Nightly/Fennec/Iceraven through setting up collections. You can disable pull to refresh in settings.

          …I like the tab button…

            Yeah the whole setting up an account to then need to make a collection of addons to then login to the account to use them on the browser is a whole lot of fucking around though isn't it. And downloading a different version of the same program to do it is even worse and nonsense I'm not dealing with. Just a perfect example of how shit it got by turning a one button process into a whole bunch of bullshit.

      I can't seem to find the setting. Is it not available for Firefox for Android (Fenix), do you know?
