The web has changed a lot over the last few years, and we've been changing with it. Our new Firefox design ships September 29 with FX 157. If you haven’t tried it out on Nightly yet, here’s what you can expect 🔽 1/4

First: What hasn’t changed: your extensions, shortcuts, and menus. Everything is still where and how you left them. What's different is the surface: cleaner toolbar, tidier tabs, less visual noise. 2/4

We’ve modernized the look and feel, added themes, wallpapers and widgets, and we’re (re)introducing functional features to make the most out of the space you have. We've always believed that a browser should work around how you use the web, and this release pushes that further. 3/4

Please tell me you're not forcing that sidebar onto everyone I love my portrait monitor and so many UI designers forget they even exist

Nevermind, as long as userChrome. css is working, I can control Firefox the same way I did 15 years ago.

We’ve worked with our community to gather feedback before our broader rollout, and you’ll see changes in Firefox that directly reflect what we’ve heard. We’re excited to bring this new experience to life with FX 157. More to come soon. 4/4

it's so weird how this happens every few years. Cleaner. Fresher. Modernized. but firefox has been basically an address bar and some tabs for like a decade so i have no idea where else there is to go

maybe you could give us some options for detach sensitivity because I'm sick to death of trying to click a tab only to have it open itself into a new window.

I'm part of the community. And already posted a few comments about the vertical tabs layout that I really don't like in Nova. The new line on top of a containerized tab instead a simple right border is the last thing that will make me switch again to Brave. Their containers design is top notch!
