Yeah sorry, it looked a bit GNOMEish so I assumed it was related to this desktop.
It makes sense for keyboard-driven window managers as well as for DEs with window decorations, but on GNOME for example this design would leave no place to move a window around.
I use this a lot on Xfce, but most users don't even know they can do this (and will never bother to change their habits). I prefer when application integrates into environment, not forces some kind of workflow. It's totally fine for a personal redesign, but as a main UI it's a bit too much.
I agree, would love to see more customizability on Firefox. I personally prefer tabs to be under toolbar/addressbar, not above it (and to hide when there's only one tab.
@Lucia i was on gnome for a year before switching to sway, so I guess that's the reason of it being looking up like gnome.
As u want tabs to under address bar, it can be achieved, if you are interested I can try to implement it.
Makes sense.
While I don't propose Vivaldi, I must admit the way they're implementing UI/UX for tabs is the right one. They have optional tab bar and grouped vertical tabs in a sidebar (which is also optional). I think Mozilla should learn some tricks from Vivaldi in that respective.
